    @mechanicjon I am wondering how your Koyorad is holding up? How many miles do you have on it? Have you had any issues?

    I was wondering how your Mishimoto is holding up? How many miles do you have on it? Have you had any issues?

    Have you used the lifetime warranty to get a replacement? If so, how did the process go for warranty replacement?

    Thank you!

    Sold the truck 2 years back but the Mishimoto was no better than the cheapest parts store option It was definately not up to the standard of some of the in house mishimoto offerings you see with their intercoolers etc. If its a premium price, i wouldnt waste your money. Did it work, yeah. Did I regret getting it over anything else, no not really. I'd Get a Delphi.

    @Timmah! Glad to hear! How many miles would you estimate you have on it? Do you know what brand it is? Did you buy it at a dealer? Thanks!

    It was a Denso made in Taiwan. I have around 30k on it. I don't drive my 98 rig as much, but the miles I have driven it have been fairly hard miles. Lots of wheeling trips in that 30k miles.

    @Jckdnls Thanks for the info! Where did you buy the Mishimoto? Was it the a stock replacement or full aluminum?
