GOOOO

I was in the market for an FMIC and ultimately went with the Abt secondary FMIC intercoler. This intercooler works in unison with the stock intercooler and uses the factory plumbing--both ICs are working to cool the charge.

I choose Abt and AMS in Costa Mesa to install because I was looking for a company that had expereince with Audis and a location that could install it. So far I like it, but I'm looking forward to a nice long hot road trip to see if the Abt unit can "walk the walk." Performance-wise, it's not eye-opening like a chip or larger turbo, but I feel the reduced heat stress on the engine is worth it.

The Turbo5 FMIC looks and probably performs awesome, but since I have a 2000 A4, I would have had to switch from my APR chip to a GIAC--and I was unwilling to do that.

The Greedspeed FMIC would have required me to "stuff" it under the front bumper, or buy a earlier model year bumper, and install it myself.

I didn't make you read all my rambling for nothing. Here's a link I found very informative about both air and liquid ICs.

Good Luck!<ul><li><a href="http://www.autospeed.com/A_0084/P_1/article.html">www.autospeed.com/A_0084/P_1/article.html</a></li></ul>

Especially since they are esentially a factory racing team for Audi. Christian has nice stuff, just I think their prices are always a bit over inflated.
