I think Nisei is working on a undertray replacement, but don't quote me on that. You should contact Nisei regarding that.

You'll have to trim the undertray a little with the Nisei. It's no big deal.

you know... it'd most likely be the same perforamnce unless you're under ultimate conditions in which case the nisei might edge out as winner by a small margin. however the arc is lighter.

if there is no difference in intercoolers why do some drop so much pressure, and why do some do such a poor job of cooling air?

There's a big difference to a point. Read the link I posted.

Pressure loss is because people buy the wrong IC for their setup. Bigger isn't always better. There is such a thing as poor design, thus some work better than others.

2x the price of Buschur Deluxe??? Comeone... F ARC. It should wipe your *** for $1500. Even if it did aad an extra 5whp over the BR, AMS or Nisei.. .think about it... $750 for +5whp? Thats $150 for 1HP. And thats hypothetical! It might not add any power over them. Rather spend the money on other mods..

Some people like bling and they have the money. It's their choice, not yours.
