I wonder what Sebba thinks about it?

By the way, what do you mean by the cooling line and etc? What else needs to be done. I thought it was just the fan and then the intercooler kit.

I just dont like those kind of setups. There are lots of really tight 90 degree bends in the pipes and the outlet is only slightly bigger than 2 inches rather than the usual 3 inch. Not to mention the intercooler is small anyway. They are cheap for a reason

well if you look in your front bumper mouth there is a small metal pipe that makes a loop. Thats is your power steering cooling line. That has to be re-run, cuz obviously its in the way. But thats an easy fix. you can replace it with a rubber hose somewhere. And sebba i dont really see gettting around not having a 90 on the inlet side like this one has, you really have to have it. and the FM isnt that small, i mean volume and surface area wise its not to bad. All in all id say this doesnt look all that bad for the price

I know... but it has alot more bends than the more expensive ones. So why is it so cheap?

you don't have to replace fans or cut anything away when installing a fmic. are you a 1g or 2g owner?

1g... and YES you do have to replace the fan. The pipe from the turbo outlet gets in the way. Unless you are using that cheap 500 buck FMIC kit you will.
