If you need one that big, get the large toyosports one from eBay. known on a few forums as 'The Wellycooler'.

It's cheaper then that, and works fine.

As said if you want a big cooler and dont want to spend loads of money buy one of the cores like this or one of the smaller ones

Then buy all the piping separately not forgetting two 2.5" to 3" joiners. People have had very good results using this setup.

as I said above its fine because you just buy a couple 3" to 2.5" silicone reducers to fit from the cooler the the rest of your pipework.
