You could just order a FMIC and get the piping made yourself or even use the FMIC from another car like a GTR. The hell with looks as long as its the best performer of the group. If given the option I'd have my FMIC anodized black to attract less attention.

Well in my opinon its that I like blitz because I saw a blitz front Intercooler for a cheap price ( forget where ). I was going to get it but i was short on money. I am makin my cars all blitz as possible and some greddy parts put in. Thats my opinon tho about the blitz but its really up to you. Also compare both of ther intercoolers and see which gives you more Hp with that check out the prices.

i have the blitz intercooler on my car and a few good friends of mine have the greddy intercooler. personally i think the greddy looks better, plus the greddy has a much better route for the piping. its about 2-3 feet shorter than the blitz piping. the advantage the blitz has is that its larger. if you are not going to go really crazy with your car then get the greddy.

The Blitz FMIC is about 0.5" taller than the GReddy FMIC. The piping on the GReddy IC is bigger. Also, the Blitz piping routing is a bit different. The driver's side of the IC goes to the turbo under the engine. The passenger side goes to the TB. The GReddy routes its pipes traditionally. Driver's side to TB and passenger side to the turbo. Pipes run in the engine bay. Also, the GReddy pipes are polished.
Anodyzing the core will help it retain heat, hense loose its efficiency.

And this is what they advertise in magazine "new parts sections."XS Engineering gives away so much to magazines I think that is why they get so much coverage and so much interest. Dyno time, free parts, labor... It's all about exposure and it's working for them.
