Check out ETS intercoolers. I'm rocking the 3.5" core, great piece at a great price.http://www.extremeturbosystems.com/M...628/index.html

I'm not sure, I replaced mine with the ETS LICP 2 when I did mine. It wouldn't be a bad idea to upgrade though, the stock LICP is definitely a restriction.

Ets 3.5 Intercooler ftw talk to them to find out what is best for your set up and future plans. I drove down to pick it up in person, well worth it.

Thanks Guys! You don't need to upgrade the lower pipe, but I would highly recommend upgrading it. We found it's worth about 7whp on a stock turbo and 12-18whp on the upgrade stock frame turbochargers. This is over the 2.0" 90 degree aftermarket pipes on the market.

Thanks!

Michael

John is selling a used Stealth Perrin FMIC. I had one on my VIII and loved it. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/no...ood-stuff.html

If that's gone, ETS is great if you want a new one.

Not a huge deal but ETS even includes sylicone turbo connectors and T-Bolt clamps with their intercoolers. Overpriceds competitors intercoolers do not . No a huge deal but its the little things that count.
