Heres a pic of my ebay intercooler. Its made by CxRacing and its 24"x11"x3". I bought the kit and it came with 2.5" short route piping for $320 shipped to my door. The packaging was awesome and it looks amazing too. The only bad part about the kit is that it was a pain in the butt to route the pipes from the stock t25 turbo to the driver side of the intercooler. Im at school now till friday but when I go home for the weekend I will take more detailed photos of the intercooler and the piping.

Looks good but the piping looks a bit long.

yea its real hard to beat the SSAC kit.

but its nice to see owners have a lot of options if for some reason they don't want to get the SSAC kit.

noonan98turbo, you said it came with the piping, was it just a bunch of pipes that you had to make fit, or was it piping routed for our cars? lets see some bigger pics and of the routing also.

I represent a SSAC short route FMIC. I think it was like 280 shipped or something like that a few years ago when i got it.


Install was wicked easy, except i had to cut the radiator support and cut the crash beam up. Other than that it easy. took me about 4-5 hours by myself in the rain to do it. Damn New England. But other than that its seen up to 28psi and withstanded winters for 2 years. It was worth the money.

The pipes it came with consisted of a bunch of different pipes that I needed to route myself, consisting of straight pipe, L-shape and 90 degree bends, along with the throttle body elbow flanged for either a 1g or greddy bov. Im going home for weekend so saturday I will take pics of the routing and I will try and make them bigger for you guys.

Yeah the piping is a bit long but I installed the intercooler right before I left for school so I did not have much time to make it look nice. I tried to just run the pipes and get the car running asap so the car would be running before I left for school. But this weekend when I go home I plan on cutting the pipes down a bit, as it does look a bit goofy right now.

I'm considering getting a ebay FMIC soon. Is there a specific ebay seller you guys recommend to get the FMIC from? Here's a link to two FMICs that I'm interested in:

eBay Motors: 95-99 Eclipse 2G 4G63 Turbo FMIC Intercooler+Piping Kit (item 380069613753 end time Oct-10-08 00:31:56 PDT)

eBay Motors: 2G Eclipse Talon DSM FMIC Front Mount Intercooler Kit (item 230299034773 end time Oct-12-08 18:30:09 PDT)

Which would you choose? Is that core good or would you guys recommend something else? Looks like the two cores look identical.

[93_tsi_fwd]

Thats the SSAC fmic kit. Thats how much I got mine for but theres someone in the classified selling it for $290 shipped or something with the missing coupler and 2 T-bolt clamps.

The second option is a better deal considering it includes the missing hardware that the first one doesn't include.

$290 + shipping

Isn't the price $280 + shipping in the classified section? Mangina24, you're the seller in the classified section and also the eBay seller?

Woops I forgot I lowered it a bit.

Does this intercooler kit look good? I want to get one where I can keep my fogs. The piping does look a little long though.

Piping is too long and the core is too small for my taste.

[93_tsi_fwd]

Anyone ever tried it? putting a 2g SSAC kit on a 1g.


Does anybody know a good 1g kit. I dont want to pay $400+ for an ebay kit that punishment racing sells.
