SMIC Intercooler.. Which one?

leeroy_25 · September 06, 2007, 09:24:08 PM

Looking at getting an intercooler for my little project FD. Have been advise FMIC is not the route to go.. had just found a nice looking Greddy FMIC too!
Being that I cannot afford the Prefered V-mount route I am left with SMIC configuration. I found one on ebay made by XS Power.. Is this any good or to be steered clear of? Also what are WGT ones like?
Cheers

Xs power ones are ok but you need to make some ducting they suffer from heat soak., but I think thats the same for any SMIC

I have one for sale Â£40 delivered but I don`t have the piping for it but you can easily buy some on ebay

Adie,

I have an ARC FMIC in my GTR..

Thank you but I have been advised against FMIC\'s and I also I cannot look at placed ads as I am not a full member yet! By the way.. what front bumper is that on your car? Looks nice.. a little veilside but I\'m not sure?

hi leeroy....
I have an xs power smic for sale, brand new in box, and a feed front bumper for sale, Â£120 delivered, and Â£140 collected :King

leeroy_25 · September 10, 2007, 02:32:20 PM

Any chance of delivering the bumper? I will skip the SMIC.. I have heard the XS Power ones are not so good? Got any side skirts?

Cheers

CharlieP · September 10, 2007, 06:02:07 PM

No side skirts I\'m afraid. Could deliver the bumper, where abouts are you? How much would you be prepared to pay for delivery?

leeroy_25 · September 10, 2007, 07:04:41 PM

I was thinking courier which is normally Â£15-Â£20?? Why are you seling it? Has it been fitted up? or does it need drilling off?
