So, as far as IC's go... which ones actually fit with NO modifications? No trimming, no heating of the tray, no bumper modifications. Plug and play is what it's all about. So the Perrin is good?

If you plan on having 300whp or more than AMS or Buscher. If not than stock is fine.

According to Gruppe-S some trimming of the bumper is required for the Greddy...?

Have some good news on intercooler kits guys. Many of you don't want to switch all the plumbing, cut the lower tray-bend it, or not be able to use other i/c pipe kits other than ours.

Starting tomorrow I am going to pull our new RS apart and build a new FMIC kit for it. I am going to use the same core/tank design we have in our kits now but make it a complete drop in kit. No cutting, bending or anything else. This kit will not include any couplings or lower i/c pipe as they won't be needed, the stock parts are going to go right onto it. It will be perfect for the SCCA guys that can't cut and change the undertray.

This kit should cost right around $100 less than our current kit, so around $650.

Thanks,

Sorry, I've been quite "out of it" lately. They say the mind is the first to go... don't they?

Ok. Looks like im gonna spend my savings at bushcur AGAIN. For that comment on how buschur treats you badly...poo on that. I ordered a 3 in turbo back from them a few months ago and they were nothing but nice and i called up at like 8:30 am to ask a question about its installation and they were stoked about helping me. Also, what about pruven does anyone have any comparos they'd like to make about pruven vs the buschur or rnr im most likely gonna go with the BR but I'd just like to hear some more opinions about the pruven and if its good or bad. David buschur, do you have any experience with it?

The core is the exact same one we are using on the FMIC kit we offer now. The only difference is going to be the placement of the core in the car and the plumbing kit.

Dave,

I am highly interested in this FMIC, since now i will not need to cut my undertray. Will you include the lower plumbing for those that are interested in the kit. I was about to purchase your FMIC kit that is 750.00, but i am MORE interested in this setup. Please let me know so i can place a order.

The only thing I don't like about the pruven is the added power steering cooler which adds hot air to the radiator stream (And when you start making real HP in these cars cooling them becomes a MAJOR issue)
