I have one sold by a different vendor that cost me $245 during the summer of 2014. Much larger than the OEM and the fit was tight, but I didn't have to trim anything. I don't know where that extra plate was supposed to. Never got around to testing the performance as I was to lazy to figure out how to data log with the COBB AP.

Did it feel any different as far as performance compared to stock intercooler?

It only felt different as I went to Stage 2 from COBB

Can't say for sure as I don't know what that feels like.
