Rj, would you happen to have a part# for it and you think my local dealer would sell at the same price or do you have a hookup with the dealer? Thanks!

You could see if your dealer will price match them and possibly not have to pay shipping.
Thanks man! I found it online for $256 plus shipping, seems like best bang for your buck intercooler even though install is PITA.
I do know someone, but I don't think he give me gives me a crazy good deal that other dealers wouldn't price match. This IC is great deal and install really isn't too bad since it is OEM, just set aside a few hours to get it done. The extra install time is definitely worth saving a few hundred dollars over the small Neuspeed units IMO. Plus it's a sleeper mod and keeps your car TD1 free in the eyes of a dealer since its OEM.

Does the Neuspeed front mount circumvent the rear cooler all together? Anyone got dimensions of it?
23.5 x 6.5 x 3 according to Neuspeeds website
Yes it does George. See below
The stock unit gets bypassed. However, the radiator and AC condenser are supported by the intercooler so that's why you have to keep it there until Neuspeed releases that OEM intercooler delete bracket kit (which essentially replaces the intercooler so the other components can be supported).

They should focus on making dual silicone hoses and walla you got twin cooler at a good price.
