my guess would be that working pressure = max pressure ~ maybe, would be pointless to put somthing that requires that much boost onto any car. ask them - then fill us in

This is what he emailed me when i asked him to explain what working pressure means. "This is relevant, intercooler works almost for all pressure"

Ill just get the 2nd i posted and if i dont like it then ill sell it to the 1st non-turbo ricer i find for $50.
Thanks for the advise guys! Knowing you are using the same 1 has helped make my decision.

RE: Ordering FMIC
someone should post up some #'s or a schematic of that mount they use - I know its very simple, but would be nice to know (or is it in the $150DIY)
ok - the 150DIY uses a different mount - I like the one that "just-intercoolers" show's better (meaning it looks like I could make it
)

That 1 is 2 3/4" thick though.
Plus I decided to buy it now instead of Tues.(dam impulse buying)
I went with the 1 from the 2nd link for $100 shipped. I will wait till Tues. for the pipes though for 2 reasons. 1st the money & second i want to shop around town to see if i can make something work.

RE: Ordering FMIC
Ok so i got the fmic and it look great!
I did a lil research today and was only able to find 1 company with the pre-fabed pipes for my car. They want $200 shipped. [:@]I can get an aluminum kit for $100 shipped but will need to cut it up which means only some parts will have the lips.
Which way do you guys recomend going?
1. Pre-fab
2.Universal
3.Just mount it and dont hook it up. [8D]
Oh and since I have a 01' do i need to have some kind of flange for the ic sensor?
