Champion vs AMS IC's 997.2

Guys, do you have some compare?!

I'm from Russia, for get champion I need make order and wait from USA, about 1-2 month, AMS I can get here, in stock.

AMS is not very big for stock turbo on 997.2?

Thank you)

AMS From what I'm told has a larger IC core (5" wide) and comes with carbon fiber ducts and a Y pipe - this kit is more expensive as well. champion intercoolers are a direct fit replacement and requires much less installation labor. I've heard the Champion ones are insanely well made and offer very good cooling in real world testing (roll racing events)

AMS is not too big for stock turbos. I used them with stock turbos on a 997.1 . I think AMS is the best intercooler kit available on the market for Porsches. The cores, end tanks and shrouding is just top notch quality. Considering they are available local to you - I'd say its a easy decision to make !

Just FYI...our intercoolers are in stock and ready to ship. Shipping to Russia should only take about 5-7 days.

Not sure if that makes your decision any easier...

Never seen champion ones in person. I'll agree with mark quality, fit and finish of the ams ones is hard to beat
