How similar are these two? They look basically identical. Any reason to spend the $100+ more for the Buschur?

Will both mount up to an ETS FMIC?

Thanks for the help guys.

Buschur UICP

Muse UICP

 

Wich ETS intercooler do you have? Standard or wide tank?

 

Wide tank for the IX

 

On my 3.5 ets standard IC my crappy injen uicp bolted up. Not without a fight tho. If i didnt get it for super cheap I wouldn't have bought it cuz i dont think at my 500whp mark a stocker is a restriction. Not to jack ur thread but id be interested to know at what hp mark the stocker becomes a restriction...?

 

I have a muse uicp and it fits like a glove. I have the full 4'' kit from muse and it fits perfect, not sure what core they use or if this info is going to help you but hope this somewhat helps.

 

If both will mount to the Stock IC they will mount to the ETS.

Upgraded UICP on an EVO does nothing you'll ever be able quantify for performance. Only positive to an upgraded UICP on an EVO is the stock rubber can start to balloon w/ higher boost.


Both are SS so pick the one that gives you the warm fuzzy and win

 

Neither. Get ETS.

 

not to dis-credit MUSE, but on my ETS wide tank it didnt fit correctly. i "made" it fit. but it wasnt easy to "make" it fit.

 

Its all the same crap.A pipe is a pipe.I personally stay away from ets i had rusty pipes(i know they are ss now)but who uses mild steel for ic piping.I also had a bad experience with them when i bought uicp Top section which ended costing me over $500.

 

Yup a pipe is a pipe

 

I remember you posting about this. Wasn't it a BOV flange they couldn't get right for you.

I use ETS SS pipes but like you said all the same ****

 

Buschur is a waste of money on a name. Some of their stuff is probably worth it, but a $100 more dollars for an UICP that is probably identical is a bunch of mark up BS. Buschur has always seemed rediculously over priced to me. Just my .02, I plan on getting the MUSE LICP and probably the UICP as well, the UICP is mainly to eliminate the rubber couplers and prevent the balloning effect created by high boost as stated previously.

 

I will buy a Muse UICP for my car, I think is the same compare to ETS UICP and cheaper too, thats more important! For my tial flange is $210 dollars!

 

Buschur has proven time and time again. Dyno and dyno again of the performance. You get what you pay for. Do it right the first time.

 

Back in the day we had the option for mild steel or polished stainless steel. People wanted to save money and picked the mild steel. We now only use stainless steel.

We have options for everything. Stock intake manifold, short route, magnus intake manifold, AMS F1 intake manifold, etc.

Thanks!
