MTM IC installed ...
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/AudiWorldPics/2000/mech@work.jpg"></center><p>extreme: the rough dimension mtm gave me was 25cmx60cmx5cm.
I have not tried it out coz this afternoon traffic was really bad after installation. First impression was turbo boost was stronger, low end torque loss, and a bit more turbo lag, K03 sounds louder, exhaust is louder, power is noticibly firmer.
more turbo lag was due to the larger area (compared to the stock IC) the turbo has to work and fill up b4 hitting the combustion chamber therefore it needs more time to fill the bigger IC.
i will post more review after i go out tonight and try out some more and can go faster with less cars on the roads : )<p>180FWD/17"BBS RX2/S-02PP/PipercrossFilter/PIAA/Wett/Remus/GReddy Turbo gauge&turbo timer/Forge Motorsport dv/NGK Iridium/Abt steel brakelines/H&R coilovers/Postert rear spoiler/Ported&Polished manifold

I see that it takes advantage of the unused 2nd intercooler pipe on the 180 ...
Does anything connect to the smaller tubes on the crossover pipe? Did you have to open the small tubes into the larger one (I think that they are closed off on the 180)?
