Anybody running one of those $200 - 235 ebay intercoolers in their 850? Would like to hear your thoughts or if think they are decent.

Thank you!

I have one in my V70 since last december, I think I paid even less (about 170$ shipping included iirc).
Build quality seems fine, haven't had any issue.

The brackets are crap tho, they don't line up with the bolts. What holds the intercooler in place is being sandwiched between the radiator and the a/c condenser

With the intercooler being thicker, it does leave an ugly gap between the fan shroud and the front plastic part thingy if that matters to you

If you're looking for a cheap replacement to the 25yo factory intercooler and dont mind a bit of trimming to make it work it's fine, if you want the best cooling possible and good fit wait for the black friday and get a Do88
