There intercooler pipes are designed for a stock fitment intercooler. Not whatever it is that you have. No wonder why it doesnt fit. On a side not, have you contacted Jim at jmf before posting on here? I know for a fact he would be more then willing to help

^^^ I just received a pm telling me the same thing. Damn I figured with the ETS core I would be good. This is very upsetting as I really wanted to run there UICP. This was nearly $400.00!! ahh oh well anyone want an uicp? haha
I did call JMF but I was too late they closed at 5..I will contact Jim tomm and see what can be done.

Agreed. Looks like it would fit stock/CBRD/old AMS style inlets, but not the ETS/Buschur style.
Yes,
that intercooler has an angled outlet, which will not allow that pipe to work!
We work closely with JMFAB and typically do NOT have fitment issues, if we ever have, its been resolved immediately.

*** A customer sent me this link and I thought it was his post, didn't even notice the date, I will leave the comment since I spent a couple minutes typing it up ***
We designed our intercooler to work with the stock intercooler piping. The inlet and outlet meet the stock piping perfectly and use a straight 2.5" transition hose. I'm not sure why they didn't build the piping the same. If you look at most of the aftermarket intercooler piping on the market they all end in the factory location.
This allows you to run our piping with factory intercooler since it ends in the factory location as well as aftermarket intercoolers that terminate right in front of the factory piping. (ETS, AMS, Buschur, ETC)
I don't really see how it would fit correctly unless it curves up towards the factory intercooler. It's hard when customers mix and match parts and want them to fit, in most cases nothing fits 100% correct unless you stick with the same brand or use a brand that terminates in the factory location.
Thanks!
