Default So I know SEVERAL people were doing the cxracing FMIC install this weekend...so

please post how it went/pics/if grills fit/fogs fit ect ect. I've had a bit of advice from those who have done it, and I've heard both good and bad. I'm just trying to decide if I should go this route or SMIC when I do the stage 3 upgrade with Avalon on Friday. Experiences/thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

Default A tool that wants to get a great intercooler for less money. Lets not hate now...I've

heard great things about the performance of the FMIC on the S4, I just don't want to have it showing like the so called 'tool' you are describing. Hence my quandry...

it actually looks good on nogaro, but on a black car it makes the driver look very fruity

Agreed. FMIC's are great. And "showing" = more exposed core/better efficiency.
