I know the FMIC will be real power, cuz after that i will most likely lose a few lbs of boost, but than bring it back to normal, plus another 2-3lbs because i will not have a much lower IAT

So the car will be able to deal with the extra boost just fine. Thats why i will only add 3/4/5lbs to the stock IC.

Stock FMIC is honestly garbage on stock boost but you can get by for a little bit until the mod bug hits again.

So really start with a tune/CP/FMIC.

Are their any 5' worth my time..?? I really want my IAT's down...

Ive been told a 7' is the only way to fly........Which ones should i be looking at..?

i do have a budget.....lol

I think VSRF for CP n DP

If these are your only options, a 5" intercooler is enough. Good options include Wagner EVO I, Active Autowerke & VRSF

I'd go out on a limb and say Cobb.

nope.

I just see at lot of VSRF used stuff. Most likely ill pick up most of the stuff used, prolly get a new FMIC, but the rest will come from the classifieds.

Good luck

My advice to you in this case is to go with a bigger intercooler like Wagner EVO II or the VRSF 7"

The whole trimming process takes less than 10 minutes.
You are only trimming the black plastic shroud behind the bumper.
