I just bought the SBR FMIC, and handed it off to my shop.

They told me it would probabaly be a bi*** to fit because of all the cutting.

My question is, its so snug on the front of the radiator, how the hell is going to still be able to cool the engine, with hardly any room to breathe air?
 
oh my were to start??? ok first off beleive it or not the air actually flows threw the intercooler and comes out the backside inwhich hits the radiator.... so the radiator does get air... and having the fmic there wont affect the temps at all either because its still breathing the same air its just delayed slightly
 
Also, big fmic's usually require cutting, its a general rule unless you have a car like an evo which comes with one. You also want to get as much air to the FMIC as possible so it can do its job.
