have you had the bumper off to give it a look at what potential problems there are?
XS power have a fmic for 300 quid includes everything you need bar an inlet reducer to go before the first pipe, bit scared though as that is surely far too cheap for a FMIC.

I can't see there being a drastic problem with it, at the end of the day an intercooler is an intercooler surely, with branding bumping the price up. I have been thinking to try an xs one out, but dont fancy spending 300 for some crap when I could get a Blitz or Trust for 550-600 I'd rather get it sorted first time round

Im not sure i would judge something purely on price, thats how these kits have remained so high for so long.
Classic boys have been spending 300ish for some time now, they cant be that different

HKS do make them obviously, over priced though
FMIC aren't needed at the moment though on VF34/35 until get a bigger turbo, but if it's the right price i'm up for one, it can sit in the garage and I'll get the pipes powder coated

Isnt it wise to wrap the pipes though?
Or is that a bit ****?
