Some of them suck, some of them don't. Unfortunately it is going to be difficult to tell which just buy looking at the auction.
For example, some of the eBay intercoolers are so crappy that they don't even include internal finning.
The piping is pretty poor aluminum which makes it a bit hard to weld, but for the price you can't beat the amount of bends you get compared to other sources. Regardless of which direction you take, you'll need to have a BOV flange welded onto it. Because of the variety of BOVs, none of the kits come with flanges.
