Going with a front mount or just straight to the stock cooling system?

Which turbo did you choose?

It would be neat to see what your temps would be with out a fmic, but I would recommend one. Did you have them weld a bov to the charge pipe? It doesnt come with one, why I dont know, but when I asked them about they said a bov is extra. If you order their intercooler opt it comes with the tial.

if you can get someone to do it, you could get piping and intercooler for in the neighborhood of $400. if you can cut/bend the pipe yourself, you could do it for $200-$250

yeah but you still will probably need custom bent pipes and other odds and ends. you can get a universal kit with t bolts, hose clamps and pipe/intercooler for less than $200

i have 2.5" most of the way then a 3" pipe where the maf is about 10-12" long

and those cheap chinese intercoolers, i would say that size is probably good for 350whp max.. it'll still work above that, just not as good
