Man, their webpage sucks!
Anyhow, I checked my info - AIE show 3 intercoolers.
First off, GTK means Greddy Turbo Kit. The piping is designed to attach to the Greddy turbo kit, which is kind of a pain. The kit has the compressor outlet pointing down, and the turbo is farther forward. You'd need a custom pipe to attach this to a stock turbo.
Anyhow, the Type 24V (the cheap one) is the V-SPL intercooler everyone (including myself) has been getting. The next one up price-wise is basically the same kit, with a different internal core design and piping to go to the Greddy turbo kit. The most expensive one is the big R-SPL Hg, which has the 4" thick core and piping to go to the Greddy turbo kit.
I've yet to see/hear about the "middle" kit being offered in the US, so they may just be copying some crap from a Greddy catalog and putting it up. Whether or not they can get any of that stuff, and in a timely manner, is a whole 'nuther story.

If you really need one fast, i think RX7.com has them in stock! But your going to pay $150 bucks more than the rx7store.com.
I'd rather see my sister become a hooker, than a NPR on another 7!

What is wrong with a NPR? Too large?
I hate when people make comments, but give no reason why.. Help us learn...
I have seen them on cars before and run nice low 13s on stock turbo.

Nothing! I would not put a stock core from a truck on my car, You pay for what you get.
Than you need to have piping made, buy T-bolts and connectors. Why not spend another couple hundred and but a kit that going to out perform a home built project anyway

Have you ever seen a large NPR? The make the largest Greddy cooler look small in comparison.
I would rather save the $400 and get a better clutch, since the NPR is good for almost 34 psi...and does the exact same thing as a named product.
