Treadstone FMIC + Piping

Who runs Treadstones FMIC/Piping kit? I was thinking about buying this but wanted to get an opinion before I do. It seems like a good deal and I hear good things about Treadstone.

I got the Tr10 and their lower pipe. The spot for the sensor on the lower pipe isn't angled so it makes for a tight install. The intercooler works well but can be a little bit of a pain to get it to install flush but not impossible. You may have to bend the tabs. Both quality pieces if nothing else.

I have the TR8 and I love it!Since I was using the stock charge pipes and its an elbow off the TR8 to a coupler connected to the stock charge pipe coupler I just cut and used the tip of the end tanks on the stock IC and stuck it inbetween both couplers so it had something to clamp down to and not blow and it has worked great. Deff well worth the money!

i have tr8 and all their piping. i love it. i also have their turbo mani and upgraded turbo which throws off the fitment slightly but even then it was just small adjustments to make it fit.

i recommend!

Both of the stock charge pipes end in a coupler. All you woulda had to do was just insert the elbow off the I/C into them. You hacked up your stock I/C for no reason...

Well I tried that and the stretch was to much it kept blowing off and since the end tank on the stock intercooler was already cracked it ended up working out perfectly.
