Hey Charlie, do you have a log of intake temps that you can share? I'm curious to see what most folks run with and your intercooler doesn't look that massive, so I'm interested to learn what is seens as typcial and normal for when under hard boost/track work.

Does your ECU allow you to easily log data?

Did you get insured shipping, if so and the carton was damaged claim on them.

otherwise raise the issue of it being improperly packed with the seller and ask for replacement / refund
