New AMS intercooler!

Just got my new toy this morning, thanks to Dan at AMS for his help, and the AMS staff for somehow pulling off getting the part to me in 3 days - in Canada - fastest delivery I've ever seen. How they did that, I don't know, but I can't complain in the least.

Good luck with that dude. I am planning to pick up the AMS FMIC & UICP tomorrow from AMS. Hopefully it will be a painless install.

Apparently from what I've read the only issue is with one of the lower bumper screws. It will go on sometime between tonight and Saturday, and I'll post up how it went.

Thanks guys! It was very easy to install. Unbolt the old one, pop off the hoses, bolt in the new one, attach the hoses. Hardest part was removing the bumper, and that's easy to do.

I expect a picture when you install the BOV btw. Also, did you have any issues with your tire wheel combo?

You will have your picture, sir. lol

I had a rubbing issue on the passenger side rear tire. Rolled fenders, ran a bit of negative camber also for good measure. Tires clear no problem now.

You should have created a howto on installing the AMS FMIC. I will be doing this soon and could have used it.
