    Intercooler info

    I have an airtec fmic and I can say they don't exactly fit well. I had to cut my bumper and the instructions you may as well bin them. but you can keep your fogs and if you cut carefully you won't see it from the front of the bumper and it definitely made an improvement over stock. I have pics...

    Central locking (not the common faults)
