Default HDI FMIC teething issues

Hey folks i have one of these fitted to my 03 sti.

only a few probs

im getting quite a lot of creaking especially going over bumps (anybody else had this and is there anyway ahead on this)

also the intercooler pipe goes under thecar and not over the engine if i was to hit a speed bump could rip off

(does anyone know if i could get a custom fabricated pipe to go over the car)

cheers

XS power intercooler pipes go over the engine and fit onto the hdi intercooler. I had to do it as mine was low to the floor.

Thats the place, that is a really bad design the way it goes under the car even with all the modding of stabiliser bolts it doesn't sit much higher, Fitted the xs power ones and that solved it, the finish on these pipes are much better too.
