AMS fmic and front motor mount installed

Bumper was a really easy to get off, only thing i was frustrated with and i should have noticed it is that since you have to relocate the BOV with AMS's intake I was unable to put on my Buschur Racing Lower IC piping, FYI for everyone that has a AMS intake and thinking about getting Buschur's Lower IC piping, but deffinitly feel a difference from the stock fmic

motor mount was easy ( thanks John ) since i got the prepressed one, little more vibration inside the car which doesnt borther me and you can feel its stiffer then the stock one with you get on it and shift

What gains can be expected from a new intercooler?

Gotta love that Rally Red.

Better cooling. :P

The Buscher showed gains of 20 hp FWIW. But that core is much bigger.

ok update.... obviously i was still frustrated about the relocation of the BOV with the AMS intake not directly hooking up to the Buschur Lower IC piping so i was looking at the stock BOV hose that hooks up to the stock lower piping and i felt confidient enough that id be able to modify it to where i can use the Buschur lower piping in conjuction with the AMS intake so took off the bumper and was able to make it work , sorry no pics yet cause im at work and unable to check my yahoo email.
