best FMIC?...again

Of interest here is this issue has been addressed in the recent past and yet this thread goes over the same ground. EVOM has a great search engine and I recommend all users to get familiar with it. In this case, let me give a single example: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...tercooler.html
Please note the same dialogues therein and the relative lack of technical details needed to make a decision.

Later, Ken

You had a really good point in that thread about the pressure. That thread also brought up another good thing and that is Black Friday! I am not in a rush so I can see what vendor will offer the better deal.

Black would be the way to go! Maybe Chris or one of you guys can get me a great deal being that your the most expensive and I have plenty of orders from you guys!

This thread has just added for Brands to consider, I just wish AMS did a black core

AMS retains the front crash bar which I really like. It is rated up to 650hsp and used on their Time Attack evo. I like AMS products.

The price isn't bad at $700. Hit a raccoon like I did and get the factory one replaced with an AMS front mount.

I have an AMS intercooler, but once the fins are bent and the AMS is faded I think I'm going with the ETS blacked out one. I just think it would look a lot better with that mean look.

I would recommend getting the AGP one if you want the AMS. Its cast as well, cheaper than the AMS, and if I remember the correctly it flowed very well. ETS products are top notch and you save some money as well

I'm still saying go ETS, great quality, no removal of crash beam, and perfect fit. Even with the 4" it required no cutting.

No the ETS end tanks are just sheet metal welded on. The way I worded it makes it sound bad but its not lol. The cast one are supposed to flow better but they weigh more.
