ER FMIC Order - Needs Trans Type?

Does ER sell two different FMIC versions for the N54, if so what are the differences? Didn't recall other suppliers requesting this information when I was pricing them.

Thanks.

Do you know what tipe of trans you have ?

Gabe - I have the DCT so arguably not either of the options.

Mike - Thanks again for the clarification/conformation.
You are the poster child for customer service and swift replies.

yup, they asked when I got mine. Like Mike said, bottom pipe is different.

DCT is the same as manual trans iirc, with the addition of the shift activator?

Mike@N54 confirmed the AT trans version would work with the DCT.

Did you install it or take to shop?

Yeah, AT works with everything, manual or auto. Only the MT version will have issues on an auto. I had a shop doing my walnut blast and offered to install it with the downpipes for another $300, so I didn't bother getting my hands dirty

Yup, with the Tial BOV, ic/cp both anodized black. Can't even see the intercooler unless you walk right up to the car and look REALLY closely, perfect for my sleeper look

Guess I read your mind since that is they my exact setup. Assume you're running a tune to take advantage of all that cooling? Come Spring will finally be able to run Cobb 1+. Then maybe pro tune after I get bored with that. My AP has blessed three N54s but this is only one I've add HW mods too.
