Anyone know the size/dimensions of the Duh FMIC? Nothing is listed on their site. <M>

Trying to figure out how much of the front bumper has to be trimmed to make it fit and trying to visualize the fitment on my car. For those of you who have one or assisted with an install, was it pretty straight forward/similar to a RS4 IC install? Thanks

Default your front bumper is pretty much useless.. There is a lot trimmed from it.

I have one, love it, no issues. But the front bumper again is pretty much useless.

Mucho more modifications then the RS4's I also had installed on my car at one time.

Default agreed.

there is a lot to be hacked away inside the front bumper.

i was told by my installer that the rs4 bumper is even more difficult.

Default So you are happy with it now that you have it? Would you be able to provide any specs on the

size of it? Trying to do the math with surface area vs the RS4's (although I know that it is greater) but trying to see total gains. Was the install relatively easy? ie: piping alignment/fitment?

Default Where are you located? I have seen Eric install it and it is a PITA. Really nice kit, big PITA to

install.

Default Fit ment was perfect, very well thought out, very well done.

just have to make your front bumper useless. But the fitment is ideal, lots of thought put in to it, to make sure that it's absolutely up against the compressor. You don't know what I'm talking about until you see one up close.

However car modifications are less then RS4/AWE since the bumper is easily replaced..

the Core is 3" thick, by something and something, I'm sure it's in a post somewhere

Default Measurement isn't helpful.

But I remember it was 22" core length(Exclude end pipe)x 11" height x 3.5" Thick.

Default 22x11x3 for the production ones. imo its a straightforward install

in that the fitment is very clean and nice. There is a lot more to do than with SMICs in terms of added parts and cutting of bumper supports. Not a bad job, but not a quick one either.
