Blitz or Greddy frnt Intercooler????????
i have the blitz and after putting it on (which was a huge pain in the _______) i loved it cause i got tons of looks. The power gain for me was pretty good.....i could feel a difference since i'm running a utec. checkout the new turboxs front mount thats bar and plate......cause it comes with a new bumper beam which means NO cutting! I had to cut soooo much and it took way too much time to do so. Plus it only has about 4 pipes i think instead of 7 or so for the blitz. goodluck on picking your front mount

I have the Blitz, and I love it, but I HATE the way that the plumbing is routed. I have considered having custom aluminum piping made to circumvent the problem.
For those that have the Greddy, what all has to be done for it to work. I know you have to get a bov plate welded, but can you use your stock bov? What if you get a jdm bumper beam, how much do you have to cut, where can you get one, and how much? Remove the fogs, but do you have to cut out anything around the fog area? Anything else i'm not mentioning?? Can you return the car to stock if need be or do you have to cut too much stuff out?
Trying to way the pros and cons of the greddy vs. STi tmic....mainly cost issues. Love the look of the fmic but not sure it's worth the xtra money since you have to do all this xtra stuff to make it fit.
jdm bumper beam
bov welded
possibly new bov??
new intake( I guess I could hack my injen)

Now that's big.
No cutting of bumper beam. It's totally removed. The piping looks sick. I had the APS top mount , replaced it with the front mount. I did not notice any difference in lag.
