All I can say is wow, I got this intercooler installed over the weekend and the spool up time is so much faster. It hits full boost so violently now and I hit full boost 21psi @ 2700 rpm. I was hitting this at a little over 3000 rpm before. The sound of the turbo is amazing as well sound like a big sinlgle turbo now

I was under the impression that I was going to get more lag due to the larger unit but thats not the case.......also I gained 2psi of boost after installing it and had to lower the boost. So the pressure drop is alot better with the unit as well. I got it from www.AMStuning.com for $750. It includes the intercooler and the lower pipes. The only pipe that is not replaced is the one from the Throttle body to the first rubber elbow. However greddy has also released this pipe as well and will be picking it up.

Very satisfied with the product

 

btw mods to my car are turboback, intake, fuel pump, flash, mbc and this intercooler

 

very nice. any dyno runs? I am looking for an IC because I am heat soaking my stock one badly. any fitment issues? what about the undertray? any pics?

Thanks

 

Very good to hear, I am also looking for an upgraded IC...perhaps I will look towards this one. There are sooo many to choose from.

 

I am lost between these IC

AMS
Greddy
Injen

 

If you are upgrading the turbo I think the AMS would be better but the unit is alot more then the greddy if you include the pipesNo fitment issues, no cutting, undertray is intact

 

I do have an aftermarket turbo 3071

 

Got any pictures of this FMIC installed?

 

Is this the V spec or R spec greddy?

When you say you hit full boost by 2700, what gear are you in and at what rpm did you floor it at?

 

I will post some tommorow V spec
3rd gear wot started at 1500rpm

 

That is pretty sick spoolup.

 

Ill see what kind of spool im making in 3rd from 1500 on my lunch. thnx for the info, perhaps this will be the upgrade for me

Will you share your mod list and tuning please (ie.what kind of turboback, fuel, what intake,etc)?

 

Here is all I have as far as motor set up is concerned
hks rs intake
greddy bov
fuel pump
helix cat delete and exhaust (freakin loud!!!)
Espelir Downpipe 3"
Dynoflash
Halmann MBC
Greddy Spec V core
Greddy I/C hardpipes

 

thnx bro

 

I love the cast end tanks of the greddy intercooler. The transitions are much smoother compared to the stock end tanks. That spool up sounds sweet.

RRE has pics of an install on their website:
