Yep it fits like a glove with no problems. You will also need the small battery kit as well.

The upper and lower that we offer for the VIII will fit on the IX as well.

Upper is $459.00 with a TiAL bov
Lower is $195 for EVO M members

im not sure how the buschur FMIC is setup. if his IC bolts to the stock piping it should bolt to ours no problem. I have not actually checked in person though

is it possible to get the upper i/c with a greddy flange on it?

and if so, if i want to change my greddy bov to the stock jdm mr bov, would it be possible?

and finally, will my braille mini battery fit with the ams uicp?

thanks and sorry for all the questions.

i'll answer that one... yes no and yes.... if you have a welded flange for a greddy valve, you wont be able to just put your stock valve on... if that is what you want, just have a universal flange welded on

Exactly. That is how I had them setup mine. Just tell them to make it look like the stock UICP. That way you can switch to whatever you want.

What kind of gains can we expect from an Upper IC Pipe on a IX? For example, for my setup with exhaust and tune?

Very minor gains if any from the UICP. It's mostly bling. Only reason I have one is because the stock UICP hose blew off the throttle body a couple of times...

AMS,


A friendly suggestion from a good customer here:

I recently purchased a LICP from Buschur. I was aiming to buy a AMS LICP for my Evo 9 since I already have a LICP from your guys on my Evo 8 as well and love it.

I went to your website and it only shows the Evo 8 LICP and the prices shows $225.

I understand you guys are offering a special price for Evo M members but you don't have it on your website and I found the $195 promotion by rebound on this topic(until I read this topic I thought the LICP were $225).

Botton line, without a doubt I would have buy a LICP for the Evo 9 for that price unfortunately your website neither specify the special promotion nor the fittment of the Evo 8 to the Evo 9 LICP. With the issue of the turbo outlet on the Evo 9 I wasn't sure if it would fit.

I really wish I knew this before....

Very respectfully

Carlos

Note take website updated.

Although we can't advertise on website for the special for EVOM members everybody would call up saying they are a evom member =)

MARK@AMS,


I appreciate your quick response updating your website and also I truly appreciate your great prices offered for the Evolutionm members.

As I said before, I did not get the LICP for the Evo 9 this time but I will continue to give great feedback on your LICP since I still use one on my Evo 8.

Again, thanks so much for taking my suggestion for the benefit of the customer.

Carlos

No problem. We love customer feedback and that was a good suggestion that was overlooked on our part so thank you.
