I have been seeing alot of articles lately on installing intercoolers on turbos.
I am looking to do the same thing.  I presently have a '85 Mitsubishi Starion
LE.  The intercooler has interested me for a long time not just because of its
increase in power but also because it will probably/hopefully increase the life
of the turbo because of the lower air temperatures.

I went to my dealer where I bought the car (i know, i know) and asked him how
much the parts would be to add the intercooler (Mitsubishi makes and intercooler
Starion called the ESI) EXcluding labor.  The total comes out to around $1000.

Anyone know if I can get a better deal using something else--maybe from a per-
formance shop?  Please post to me and the net because I'm sure it is of inter-
est to alot of others.  BTW,  I live in Boston, MA.
