bumper crash beam, is that the undertray? i dont know what that is, but i do not have my undertray on and do not plan on putting it back on.
and a guy had just started a thread today saying how he had fitment issues with his buschur fmic, which kind of scared me away from it. But thanks for ur input..he said he was having fitment issues with the lower ic pipe.

Both AMS and Buschur intercoolers require you to cut the undertray. Last time I checked, the XS Engineering doesnt require any cutting or modification to the undertray or crashbeam.

i can't believe no one has said nisei. they fit perfect with the crash beam as well. and if you want ic pipe they also have the best quality. just do some research and you will see. as for performance it would also be the nisei. but not to bag on ams because their stuff if very nice as well and performs well. but i truly believe that when it comes to ic nisei has the edge on this one.

From what i gathered, only 2 intercoolers dont require you to cut your undertray. ARC and Perrin. not sure about XS engineering.
My perrin IC is on its way, so i will reconfirm it.

I have a custom griffin IC for my mazda, and it is excellent for the price, but the spearco core design is superior..
