Hoestly I love HKS but thier FMIC isnt the best option for the evo X. You have to buy thier whole kit also....other IC piping wont fit.
I love my 4" ETS and it took 45 min to install on the ground in my garage

actually the intercooler is the same. type 1 is just the intercooler, type 2 is the same intercooler plus the piping kit. if you buy the type 1 intercooler this month and buy the piping kit next month, then you actually have bought the type 2 hks intercooler.

I can put you in touch with a friend on the UK forums who has, I have the standard HKS IC pipe kit, his JDM HKS race intercooler has 10mm larger bore pipework as I said above.........standard turbo had difficulty filling it!! The other kit is standard size and not worth the cash imo, HKS bits are nice, but there's a limit!

if you can ask him did he change out the stock radiator for a larger one? cuz I think I read somewhere that the endtanks on the hks intercooler will block off the radiator even more and increasing the car's temp.
I recently put my hks fmic on and thats the reason i ask

For the price of the HKS front mount intercooler you have several other options available. We have several options available from 3.0" to 5.0" thicknesses.
