Love it and it fits directly in with the only problem being that you have to cut or remove one of the under panels because the intercooler is so big!!! : ) i have the street intercooler and not the race but the street is still really big!!! it is a great intercooler but not if it is your first mod!

Nice intercooler, dont get it now. Wait till you have other suppourting mods like a nice turbo back exhaust, drop in panel filter, and a nice custom tune.

AMS had less than 1psi drop when they tested it.

No. Not needed yet.
Bigger turbo, high psi, meth/alky/water injection ect...Then it's time.

Get rid of that POS bov please, go get a forge recirc valve, meth, cams, and a good tune. Then you can think about the intercooler.

Does the AMS intercooler have a 2.5" inlet and outlet? Im assuming so since the i/c pipes are 2.5". I just want to be certain.
