I've been trying to find pics of an apr fmic on a 180 but can't find any. Just curious how it looks behind the bumper.

 

ive seen it in person.

looks a little off bc of the C-style core, but none the less it does look like an intercooler. a trapezoid intercooler.

 

Pure suggestion. Buy your own front mount intercooler & have the pipes made. You'll save $$$.

 

My temp setup. Will be making my own setup with 2.5" piping here soon. It will either use the pancake pipe around to a drivers side intake man, the same as current but with the pipes tucked in so the side vents fit back in, or just use a w2a core i have sitting around in the battery location to a DS man

 

I don't really plan on buying one, I was just wondering how the C-style core fit behind the bumper. I think I'm gonna go with water/meth instead of an fmic. I figure even without tuning I should get as much cooling and just as much power from the water/meth as I would an intercooler, but please correct me if I'm wrong on that.

 

a good ic will both flow better and not be a reaccuring cost. Plus if you dont plan on tuning for the w/m, its not worth it.
