RnR Street Core FMIC

This is mainly a fitment question.
Would a RnR Street Core FMIC fit with stock IC piping?
I've done some searching but pretty much all of the threads i found pretained to the Race Core.

Any Help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You

Feel free to have my post deleted if it doesn't help you, but I would be _EXTREMELY_ cautious buying ANYTHING that RNR makes. They are one of the most hated and controversial vendors in the Evo community and have left the community due to that reason. The last thing I'd want on my car is a part from RNR as important as an FMIC...

I am not buying the FMIC directly from them, but instead from someone else on the board. I thought i read that there FMICs were actually pretty decent..?

I don't care where you're buying it - I'm talking about the piece itself. I would not put that on my car even if it was given to me.

Hahaa...Ain't that the truth. I tried to get a price quote on how much they would charge to install my tbe, intake and stainless clutchline since I live in San Diego. They said they don'y do installs unless I bought rnr products!!! WTF!!! Took my business somewhere else. I had my eye on their turbokit too. If they would have taken care of me. I would have bought their turbokit. It all worked out in the end since their turbo kits had issues anyways. Not sure about their intercoolers. Well good luck with intercooler. Hope everything work out for you...

They tend to use ebay parts i.e. their TBE and I would assume the FMIC is too( I have nothing against ebay parts, but save your money and just get the ebay FMIC for $150.00 shipped and get the same thing)

their TBE is the TSUDO brand (I have it its ok $200.00 shipped last year ebay) if their FMIC is the xs power core then it fits with some fighting. You will know that it is a ebayer if the mounting brackets arent welded but screwed to the endtanks with 2 screws.
