I'm not sure how the VK is better quality? They use the stock inlet and outlet couplers, so you have a 2.0" inlet and outlet on your intercooler.

hey rev, it you are gonna pick between vk and ets, pick the ets, there is defintely some time and quality put into that fmic, plus you get rid of the crappy stock hoses, which makes a world of difference

I am going to order an ETS here once, they get some more in stock! I have a buddy that has had one for over a year, and it has held up great, and was a good compliment to his other mods!
