Standard Buschur FMIC

Hey, didn't know if anyone on here has purchased the standard front mount intercooler from Buschur Racing. Doesn't come with the shorter Lower IC pipe. I wanted to hear some reviews on this before I purchase one. I didn't know if there was a big difference between the deluxe and standard kits. Any info would be great, thanks.

Hey Scott,
No the standard FMIC kit does not come with the lowering intercooler plumbing and that one also does not require cutting of the black splash shield it really is just like a stock replacement and is a really nice piece.

The deluxe kit comes with the lower intercooler plumbing, but does require cutting of the splash shield.

If you have anymore questions please feel free to ask. Take Care

Jarrod

Its fine, bar and plate, and the endtanks are perfect, it'll flow enough for 750WHP. Both are fine, but you SHOULD replace your Lower IC pipe, the stocker is garbash for flow and spoolup. This is where big piowergains and throttle response are gained and why the original Buschur Fmic (for the stock turbo) pics up big WHP, its all the LICP baby......


I believe AMS has on for cheap, or just get and entire kit, but I would replace the LICP before anything else for power gains....
