yes- the PC 7424. Buy one off of the classifieds here. I bought mine new, but you can save 10-30% going used. Many have been used only once or twice.

Michael,
You have experience putting in a new FMIC right? I'm getting my ETS 5" tomorrow

Joe lay off the gas pedal. Luckily that V1 saved you.

It took just over 2 hours on my ETS. Here's a few tips:
It also looks like the intercooler is too small or fits too low in the bumper. There's nothing wrong with the ETS design, it's just that the M-Sport bumper has a much taller opening than the regular sport bumper. Had I known this, I probably would have stuck with taller Helix intercooler, but the ETS 5" fits well and gets the job done. I still can't believe it-- such a small intercooler and it provided a consistent +21 degree delta from ambient to IAT, even with 4 back-to-back pulls on a stationary dyno. The improvement over stock is insane. Get ready to get your hands all oiled up too, thanks to the stock recirculating PCV system. |

Either of you two want to help me out with this? My garage has no room to work really and I know I don't have all the tools I will need. I will compensate with cold beverages

Intercooler install is pretty easy, Michaels right. Only took about a hour and a half. Gotta have a Dremal though.

Thanks for all the input guys. I will probably just end up taking it to COBB. That way, I know it will be done right. The price they quoted me is negligible for peace of mind.

I would go to cobb- not to sound like a broken record on this thread. I just got off the phone with them, scheduled my coilover install for next week. Very reasonable quote and you know they will do it right.
