Awesome thread...I've got one and I've been restricted to the stock IC for the time being until I find the best possible IC to run with the brace. I know for sure that the HKS Type R IC works with the brace too. Little bit more on the expensive but you get what you pay for...tube and fin style instead of the usual bar and plate.

 

if you know the ARC intercooler fits, there's one selling brand new for 700 bucks on ebay!

 

sweet ill add that to the list!!!



yeah i know people with the brace have a hard time finding out what IC's will fit and i wanted to help out being a power brace owner myself.

GREAT SUCCESS! VERRRY NIIICE!

 

i thought about buying it, BUT if im gonna spend that much money why not get a great FMIC like the ETS or the big PERRIN one for less?

the ARC is nice but its just bling IMO. plus ill probably end up destroying it and people would hate me for that. LOL

 

go ETS! everything they have made is really on point and their customer service is one of the best. Michael really knows how to get things done!

 

^^really leaning towards it but it doesnt hurt to have OPTIONS.

 

I would avoid the Perrin IC, inlets are small, even though they say 2.5" thats on the outside, the walls are so thick it's really 2.25" a real bottle neck setup if you ask me. I had one

 

^^good to know thank you!

 

Whoa, never seen a red Cusco, I thought they were all Blue. Thanks for the pics!

Michael

 

Thanks, i like to be different!

 

I tried 2 things,

stock intercooler with cusco bar paint in red: wasn't beautifull but fits
ETS 3.5 intercooler with cusco bar paint in black: was much beautifull but didn't fit

I tried to modify it, but didn't have any acceptable results

 

You have to make sure it's the Cusco version. The std or wt will not fit.

Michael

 

Yes it was the standard Cusco version

 

Ok sorry to bring this back from the dead (sorta) but has anyone tried the buschur street core intercooler?

 

Excellent i was wondering that for my ams ver 1
