Pros: intimidation factor, sufficient cooling, a must have for high horsepower application
Cons: somewhat laggy.. needs to cut bumper beam

overall quality of this FMIC is excellent, it comes w/ everything you need to install. the pipings on R-spl is a little bit bigger than the V-spl.. thats the only difference. w/ vf30 turbo, the fmic helped a lot on top end, but it suffers on low end..(lag)

Pros: minimum piping, less lag.
Cons: bumper support beam needs to be fabricated.

this is a good fmic, comes polished (but i had mines polished to a mirror finish.), minimum piping, so there's not to much lag. can't use your fog lights anymore. lots of fabrication to your bumper cover and your bumper support beam. first time installations will be pretty difficult and strenuous. but definetely well worth it. great product!

Pros: Not too big
Cons: Cutting of the bumper and the bumper beam, removal of fog lights

The over all construction of the Greddy kit is fairly well. I hated the fact that I had to cut my bumper beam and remove the stock foglamps, as there are kits available now that don\'t require this (I beleive) The core isn\'t as big as I would have liked it (maybe just a few square inches bigger would have been perfect) All in all a good buy.

Pros: Nice looking piece of equipment
Cons: Piping size / power gains

I had this on my car along with a full VF34 setup, and I am sorry to say I was not impressed. The piping size is significantly smaller than the Blitz and other competitors. I did not get the power gains out of it that I hoped for, (dynoing 30whp less than another car with my exact setup and Blitz FMIC). I am sorry to say I would NOT recommend it.

Pros: good performance value, good looks.
Cons: some turbo lag.

greddy makes a fairly decent intercooler. it looks good and works so/so, it has a bit of turbo lag so it\'s not perfect. it does come with all the parts you need for an easy install which is a plus.
