I am using the AMS LICP with the Buschur Standard IC and it works fine.

I will say that fitment of the actual parts was fine, BUT placing the bumper back on was a task as the combination is a tight fit. I think the Buschur Standard IC is the issue here as it takes some playing with to get it to fit. Fitment on that IC is not OEM perfect, great product quality but not a perfect fit. I chose that IC so I did not have to trim any of the under tray.

I would also advise caution when tightening the clamps on the AMS lower IC sections as those parts are VERY thin and WILL crimp inward (causing some restrictions) if you over tighten the clamps... If you are like me, you tighten things well to avoid boost leaks.... I wish these parts were a tad thicker for strength... I am sure I can't be the only one to notice that. The AMS LICP is light as a feather (thin materials)... The Buschur standard IC is easily 2-3 times the weight of the stock IC, I was surprised by that.

Hope this helps.

Chris
