    Tell her to email me: clay@ctsturbo.com

    Don't tell her to email: nik @ ctsturbo because he's obviously not as cool, but he uses this account most of the time though

    How did you find your install? Pretty straight forward and simple?

    took longer than I thought, but I was doing some other repairs as well, other than that it was pretty simple and straight forward. Just remove the old coolers and bolted this one up

    If you're chipped you'll see some solid gains, especially if you do auto-x or track days

    One of the vortex admins installed this kit and said it was night and day over the Forge unit he had previously.

    Ah, I was planning the Tial Q. Its a DV. I will shoot you a email when the time comes. Thanks for the reply.

    Not sure how you would plumb the DV back to the intake from down in the front fender area. If you want your DV post IC - i'd use the Forge kit. I'm using a similar setup and it works great for DV cold side relocation.

    i have this it works grate sounds grate

    Finally had a chance to post a pic of the intercooler with the bumper on. Its a very nice fit, you can hardly see it.

    On my list for sure. Pretty sexy piece. 2 coats of flat black rattle-can and you'd never know it was under the bumper. Very stealth.

    Not bad for a grocery getter, we could get a nicer spool and same power with a smaller turbo, but we had that one kickin around the shop so we used it.

    Nope, we don't have many of those up here to develop kits on unfortunately.

    I am interested in your FMIC kit, but I have a few questions/comments.
    1. Is the kit complete with all items I will need to install the IC?
    2. I don't want to race my car, however, I absolutely hate the heat sink from the 110 deg ambient temps.
    3. I love the stock drivability of the car, but I do have severals mods.

    225Quattro
    APR Chip
    Blueflame Exhaust
    Evo "Madmax" DV
    Modshack Stg 3+

    My main concern is the FMIC blocking the radiator and AC condensor. Have you experienced increased temps on the AC?
    Can you tell me the internal pressure drop of your IC vs the twin stock IC's?

    I am also considering Water injection as a cooling method and I realize I can come close to ambient temps with water/methanol, but I will consider the potential lower internal pressure drop as the deciding factor.

    My main concern is the FMIC blocking the radiator and AC condensor. Have you experienced increased temps on the AC? no, none whatsoever, we have sold these kits to numerous texans
    Can you tell me the internal pressure drop of your IC vs the twin stock IC's? we don't have those details
