56536, Need help on picking a intercooler
Posted by eclipseman1999, Sep-17-03 02:11 PM
If anyone has pics of a fmi behind a oem 97-99 eclipse front bumper can you post the pic.I know the hahn fmi is big enough but I want to find one a little cheaper.Also I want it big enough to take up the whole oppening in the middle of the bumper.

it looks like you have an aftermarket bumper, but im not sure which one...

when i had my aggressor on it took no fabrication whatsoever. with the stocker 97+ it took quite a bit of cutting/sanding to make it fit.

I have a Buddy Club front and I'm hoping I dont have to do any trimming. I haven't seen anyone else on here with the same front end so I guess I'll find out soon! :thumbsup

Shameless Plug Department:

If you don't mind doing your own piping, we do offer a killer universal FMIC with the same size core as our 420A DSM model for a most reasonable price. Check the website!

Boost It!

Universal is at the top, the complete 420A kit is a bit further down...both are sporting low sale prices currently!

how comes it's a different design from the 700 dollar one? I'm in the market for a new something Bill.

This Universal Intercooler is less expensive due to its ease of construction. We can weld one of these together in a fraction of the time for the 420a/4g63 Eclipse FMIC, in addition to less parts and prep time required.

Essentially, this one does not have the crossover passage that allows both inlet and outlet to be on the same side as on the Eclipse FMIC.
