Wagner IC copy-cat?

[Bram]

I just noticed the following item on the German Ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.de/NEU-grosses-Alu-L...3A4%7C294%3A50

The traverse (x-member) and IC look somewhat the same as Carsten's master piece, but this IC is not with cast end tanks and all aluminium. Also the traverse is somewhat different, but remainds me directly to Carstens solution.
What I also noticed is that the company is located in the same town as Wagner Tuning is residing? Is this a full copy-cat????

The work itself does not look too bad IMO

i think the flow in that IC is not going to be as efficient as Carsten's in ANY way....

as i stated before a couple times... this Guys makes copys of my Parts since almost 8 years, he went with a couple companys in bancrupcy.
And he starts after a while always with the same stuff over and over...

for example, this is the same Guy who ripped him of, and sold his IM as ours...

by the Way, i wouldnt call that as a copy of ours, he used a 80$ Intercooler and is just extending and adjusting the Tanks... the x-member, i hope our looks not that bad...

so at the End, i hope that People are not buying such cheap copys like that and support this way companys like ours to developt new Products for older cars, wich make your life more easy and give your cars some amount of safe extra Power...
