Complete the LOOK?? Can you really see the LICP while the front bumper is in place? I've never noticed mine.

I got retuned today at 22 psi and these were my personal findings

I'm running AMS UICP and Evo X FMIC and my tuner said (forgive my lack of technical vocab)...that my intake air temperature was very close to the incoming ambient air temperature, so no "heat soak" I think they call it (again someone more knowledgeable can correct my vocab)

Doesn't seem like the LICP is in dire need of an upgrade like the stock UICP hose, at least not on stock turbo

although I'm still interested if there's anyway possible - just to complete the AMS piping set

i have installed it with the mini battery kit and the transmission cooler kit but i have costomise it to fit...

i haved cut the licp at the imput of the trotle body by one inch for the licp pass for the battery braket...also cut the licp braket to pass the transmission cooler kit...lot of work to fit with the battery ant the transmission cooler kit....

i have the small battery kit and the problem is not the battery but it s the battery braket....the final result is very good but lot of fitment issu!

the battery braquet is not the only issu...the licp dont pass with the ams transmission cooler kit but i have no pic of this....

cutting a licp at this price and take the risk that dont fit at the final is not very funny!

if you buy it you will understand but if you dont have the ams trans cooler kit it more easy...

i have the ams stage 3 installed myself on my car but all fit number one and all what i buy at ams fit number 1...
