Okay, so i plan going with the Muse Upper (Short Route) and Lower Piping, the question is, has any body went with that set-up and used it with the stock intercooler? If so, how's the fitment on it? And notice a big difference in spool/power?
Also, if any of you guys have the piping with the Niesi intercooler, how's the fitment for that?

Thanks.

 

They'll fit just fine.

LICP will help a touch with spool and power, UICP not so much.

 

I have a Muse LICP on my IX. The fitment was great with my otherwise stock setup. I can feel the turbo spool up alittle bit quicker now.

 

Ohh okay, sweet. Thank you guys!

And what's the diameter of the upper piping?

 

I too have been happy with the Muse pipe


enjoy!

 

I personally like the Nisei, they make one of the shortest routing LICPs and it comes with a bracket too. The Nisei comp intercooler is probably the biggest core one you could get and fit under stock crash beam gl.

 

I have the Nisei LICP and love it.

Isn't the Buschur Race intercooler the biggest to fit under the stock crash beam?

 

i have the upper short route and it fits fine..!

 

+1 Installed mine just an hour ago...and am very happy with the fitment...so for the price and it being a short route you can't beat it...

 

Muse is 2.5 all the way through. The biggest FMIC that fits with the crash beam is the ETS 4 inch I believe

 

i was running both the upper and lower piping. the upper used to be a cheaper aluminum based piping, now its a stainless steel pipe. The only downside to this is its heavier, but you dont have to worry about crushing the ends with tbolts. Its got a new design so you can recirculate stock bov as well with stock recirc tube, no extension junk anymore.

The lower pipe is stainless steel also, and seems to fit perfect. I used this setup on my perrin fmic and put down 551/486 with correction in 97f on a properly reading mustang dyno. the pipes seem to flow and do what they are meant to do, and they do not create boost leaks even at 40psi of pressure.

 

Ohh thank you guys for more information.
I really appreciate it.

Thank you!
