I know lotspeople will pay out the nose for ****. Thats why I said "imo."
Yes, kakarot is an idiot. He used to come in the A4 section and post some off the wall ****. I remember getting into it with him at least a couple times.

i would agree, i could never get myself to buying a fmic for almost 1000 bucks. I did the ebay core and just got some mandrel bent U bends and fab'd mine up myself. The think works great...and looks good too! imo i would just do the ebay intercooler, way worth not paying an extra 800

How come i missed out on all the bs this guy writes [:@]!! Cincy, im taking economis in college right now, and i know what your talking about!! haha yes! its all about the demand. But just to atleast stick with the point of this post, is there a DIY for bigger turbos? or you just use a bigger core and larger diameter tubing?

Unfortunatly there is not a DIY for this. But you need a core that can flow enough CFM for your turbo. Piping should be as big as possible without creating psi drop or lag. 2-2.25" will be fine for stock to midsize turbos and 2.5" piping for larger turbos gt30 series.

Well first off thanks for the replies guys. I at least got one of my questions answered. I was really hoping for more input on the fuel leak. But oh well guess it's going to the dealership (that sucks) As for the the fmic. I was just looking to get a cheap from ebay. Proprably this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Turbo...spagenameZWDVW Don't have that much money to through at this car now (especially since I got to get the leak fixed) But I am hoping to replace the turbo sometime in the future and I guess the fmic would be the cheaper of the two.

Its not a bad kit, but you may have to do some work to get it to fit.
