[QUOTE="SVT_Troy, post: 15807453, member: 124907"] My intercooler and radiator tanks came back from the powder coaters yesterday. I think they turned out nicely. I sent both tanks off so they would match perfectly. My guy was able to match them to the VMP blowers color pretty decently, i'll have to wait until it gets out in the sun light to really tell. Anyway overall I am impressed with True Forged tanks but let down in a few areas. I'm not sure what grade of aluminum he used but it is not 6061/6063. It really seems like 2011/2024 but i'm not a metal expert. Also the nipple for the overflow hose on the radiator tank is too large so the oem hose does not fit well. I should have caught this first and had a smaller nipple welded on. Anyway here is what my I/C tank looks like now. I had a small piece welded onto the pumps lower supply fitting like True Forge did to prevent large pieces of ice to become clogged. This is the choke point in the tank if any.
