You will get it from eBay for EUR750 + shipping...

I still have it uninstalled and I will install it when my ECU arrives from Sweden where it is now sent for GIAC Stage 2 flashing. If you are interested, I can sell it to you for EUR670 shipping included (I got it without VAT so I can go lower on the price). I am still thinking of installing a smaller IC for now.

why would you want to install a smaller IC? Thats one of the best IC out there for sure which will go perfectly with the flash tune. the GIAC dealer in sweden actually sells a full Stage 3 package which consists of the Wagner IC/Dps and flash plus Injen Intake.

Yes I noticed that as well, so I just ordered one today from Germany (e-bay).

Now I just have to decide whether to go with the Afe or Injen intake...

You can't go wrong with either one. Both top quality and functionality. Im more of an Injen fan though... Probably because of the R&D involved and plainly the look of it

The only reasons are related to weight and possible turbo lag. But soon my GIAC-flashed ECU will be on the car and I will be forced to install the FMIC too.

My only concern is to be able to finish all the mods before the first snow

Both are useless...I assure you.

Some road-test against certain car of reference , before/after intake installation will prove me right.

dlbrooks18 · 11-17-2010, 06:11 PM

nice.. how much does it weigh?

Dr_Dirt · 11-17-2010, 07:40 PM

Looks very similar to other fmic out there. Why doesn't someone try the water-air IC?

I have actually been wondering about that myself.... It's nice if it gives a higher dyno reading and they both look really cool, but I'm really only concerned with "real road power".

Nice, did you get a stage 2 or 2.5 flash then?
