UICP question

So i picked up a evo x FMIC and UICP, i was wondering does the evo x UICP fit the ralliarts turbo outlet funnel. also will aftermarket evo x UICP fit the ra turbo outlet.
Is the RA and evo x turbo outlets the same?
Thanks

I thought the turbo outlet on the X was bigger. That's why you can't buy a uicp made for an evo X.

I was told that the EVO X UICP would work but its the LICP OEM X pipe is the one that gives people trouble.

umm. People put the evox UICP and IC on their RA's, so it must fit.

I believe it is a simple reducer coupling on the UICP and turbo outlet to complete the setup

direct fit for the turbo outlet on the uicp. if replacing the intercooler as well, the only thing you need, as mentioned above, is a straight 2.5" diameter x 6" long silicone hose to connect to the licp

^ i was talking about the i/c outlet coupler to the stock licp. if he's keeping the oem licp, he wont need to worry about fitting the bpv. i meant something like this and then just cut it down to the length you need: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/UNIVE...item3f02c00468

I bought the UR uicp and licp with reducers from them and it fit perfect and i had no modification for bpv or anything. i would suggest upgrading to hard pipes so make it more efficient and just getting the reducers necessary.

that's what i did( i went with the nisei uicp tho, which would match up either way.) but the only issue is going to be with the licp and i also went with UR for this one since they have one specifically for the ralliart and just asked darryl to send it with the evo x i/c coupler instead of the stock ralliart one. no extra cost and everything fit perfectly. i can understand why you wouldnt want to do it because its extra money and a pain to do when you consider the minimal gains that come along with it when compared to the uicp, but it's nice to just have the whole set upgraded while the bumper is already off, so there's no worries in the future if you change your mind

How long does it take? How bad is it to remove the bumper?
