Alloy ones seem to be popular. Custom/mass produced. I hvent seen anyone pay more than $250 for one yet. |

I run one of the alloy core units that I sell in front of my G16B (in Sierra) without any dramas... Several others do too. It'll handle your 1.3 easily. $230 to your door. |

With a std box, I don't know how you got a p/s box in there to, that's the reason I still have a 1.3 rad, the vit's to wide.. |

The cressida box is exactly the same width as a sierra box..... and thats why i didn't use a vit box..... |
