Mine is the JRspec 550x180x65mm in black. Highly recommended!

I bet they're the same =D I thought about going with the JR, but they are gloss black AND not in stock, so I went with the FMIC thing. Your IAT's don't change one bit, that's very good to see.

What do you have in terms of ducting under the car? Factory undertray? Air guides? Sealed the gaps?

For the undertray I just hacked the sides off my OEM plastic tray and secured it with a custom bracket. Works well enough!

I was going to use the cobalt stainless steel under tray but that was way too heavy.

FMIC were awesome. Even with the "custom" color intercooler, they shipped it in ONE day! Arrived today very well packaged.

Big intercooler is big!





Quality for the price is amazing, black finish is perfect, feels SOLID and internal fin design/density looks very promising.

Can't wait to put it on, but my E36 Coupe needs attention right now. I'll try to get this big thing mounted ASAP.

Internal fin density looks great for sure. That will do nicely
