FMIC ?
Racetec fits, but it's tight. No cutting of anything to fit. Everyone posts at least one "It won't fit, are these parts right" post after first trying install. And we all assure them it does and they are the right parts. It's tricky, but it works and you have to cut nothing.
My SAI pump needed bent up a little (the bracket that holds it) and of course your power steering cooler tube needs bent out of the way (as with most of the FMIC's, but ER COMP comes with a separate powersteering cooler, NICE!).
Other than that, everything is tight but fits fine with no modifications for the Racetec. But on initial try, of course because people are so anxious to get it in and don't take their time, everyone thinks it won't fit and posts on the forums thinking they got the wrong parts.
You won't find any FMIC that is big enough to hendle larger turbos that isn't a tight squeeze. Trade off- if the FMIC fits easily, it probably isn't good enough to work for larger turbo.

if you arent going BT, there is no need for the ER comp, thats way overkill... they have a smaller one, ER sport... racetec is the best bang for ur buck though... mine fit no problems.. didnt trim the bumper or anything.. i did buy a hayden tranny cooler 4x8 and used that for my power steering cooler (mounted it above racetec) there are some pics in my gallery)
the hotside piping took me a few minutes to figure out, i have some pics of that if u need too, just PM me
