I would like to know about the AMS style FMIC too. Is there any proof that they do produce power like the BIG BRANDED intercoolers. Someone with info get back to us all please!` Thank you!

i dont understand why the evo community have not broken out of the idea that they must buy over priced $700 intercoolers, $700 tbe, 300+ ic piping.

i know there have already been lots of evos that have had sucess with running the $120.00 ams copy intercooler. i also okan to get this intercooler for my evo as soon as i upgrade to a gt3076r.

Im all about spendin less money if i know it works... I use ebay to buy parts IE exhaust,pipes etc... But on somethin like an intercooler just sayin it works cause its on 600whp civics means nothing. I had a CCA FMIC on my SRT-4...It was a big FMIC but it was only like 300 shipped(from ebay) and the car made good power 400 on pump and low boost and trapped 120 in the 1/4. But I decided to upgrade to an AGP intercooler@$700(soon to be released for the evo

) and gained 20whp from doin nothin but switching coolers!
SO thats why i say unless there is back to back dyno testing same day same car etc switchin from STOCK> Ebay> AMS and/or flowbench tested...Ill give my money to AGP or AMS

i think aftermarket manifolds crack cus their lighter/thinner, and the stock o2 housing helps hold some of the turbo weight off the mani while aftermarket ones usually dont. so if stock o2 is swapped for aftermarket, theres a lot of weight on the mani.

Id love to see flow test and/or dyno #'s with the $120 cooler vs AMS vs Stock. If it cools and flows better than stock and fins and welds look good buy that ish.

+1 on someone testing flow on the ebay copy. ...but I don't want to be the one to do it because I think AMS does a good job doing what they do... and ebay copy cats are a shame to this industry. I'm just curious. ...heh heh
