Smile HKS type R intercooler

Does anyone have any experience with this FMIC on their evo? I've been looking around for specs such as cfm but im having a hard time finding them, if anyone has any info on this intercooler and piping in comparison to the Buschur FMIC or perrin yadda yadda yadda. Any info would help out alot.

From HKSUSA.com:
Width (mm) - 600
Height (mm) – 255.6
Thickness (mm) - 103

No CFM data that I saw but you know it is going to be overkill for the stock turbo. It looks to be a fantastic piece with full intercooler piping (both upper and lower). I have been looking for a vendor with this intercooler in stock. This will be the intercooler I run when I step up to a larger turbo.

im running this intercooler in my car right now, its great. One thing though is that it does not come with full intercooler piping. It comes with all of the piping but the peice that goes by your battery and into your intake manifold. I spoke with the guys from HKS and they said that they did it this way because they realize that many evo owners already have that top pipe changed

Part numbers:
FMIC, PN 13001-bm001
Top pipe with Hks BOV, PN 71001-xm002

Are you running the stock turbo? Can you post pictures? Did you notice any power gains? I could go on and on. Thanks in advance.

thanks guys, the more info the better im about to do a HUGE rebuild on the evo in the upcoming weeks motor, tranny, and prolly gonna go with an AMS gt35rl kit and i just wanted some more opinions on what FMIC to run. Have you guys noticed any compression loss with the addition of the HKS intercooler?

I really like this cooler myself. Notice the width !! Good for cooling BUT possible chop of the bumper support!
