Default Intercooler repair

I need to get a Greddy 2 row front mount intercooler repaired but I have no idea where to take it. I have called some radiator shops and import auto but I have had no luck getting someone to fix it. I have a small leak on the center fins but it is not bad at all. Please post or pm me some contacts that might help me get it repaired. Thanks.

Fuckit, when everything else fails...JB weld the bitch. I know thats ghetto as hell, but if its aluminum, and some radiator shops dont want to take the chance on fuckin it up welding it, that may be the ghettofied solution. I try not to do things that way, but sometimes you have not other option than sending it to Greddy and having them fix it.

Thumbs up Re: Intercooler repair

Yeah, JB weld it and then put it under pressure. Brilliant! Why not just put some duct tape or gum on it instead?

JB weld might hold on a radiator.. but like he said ^^^ under pressure it'll blow off...
