Just because I'm lazy, can you take a pic of 2 Evo's next to each other...one with the stock i/c and one with this one on?

Full piping kit is under development as is a small battery kit in billet with probably a Odyssey PC680MJ. Hopefully within 3 - 4 weeks it will be released.

It should work with the Gialla from bumper, the buchur fits fine since one of my friends has it on the Gialla bumper. We will be putting the Nisei FMIC on his car soon since he may be converting over.

We tested Nisei vs Buschur yetsterday. We're getting the data ready and hopefully can add it to our list of data this week.

Absolutely. I'll find a stock FMIC evo and snap pics for you with the Nisei next to it.

There's really no real way to quantify an exact or estimate of a HP gain. Theoretically if the previous intercooler on the car is doing it's job 100% effectively, there should be no gain. However, we noticed that there was around a 20 - 25 deg F outlet temperature difference between the the stock intercooler and the Nisei, with the Nisei being cooler. This should obviously translate in to a HP increase since cooler air allows for more air density while moving quicker through the intercooler since it has increased flow (23 rows) as well. The gains felt would depend on turbo size/flow (lbs/min) and boost level.

Correct, the intercooler on the left is a Buschur.

Awesome, we hope to have estimated pricing in the next weeks and the full kit available within a month. As of now the only thing available is the intercooler itself, which works flawlessly with the stock piping.

(possibly dumb questions)
Would this IC be too big for the stock turbine?
Would it even help the stock turbo?
Does it make sense to get it now, with plans of upgrading the turbo farther down the line?
