Right Looking for an FMIC, Finally getting round to start the modifications.... Recently fitted a Green cotton pannel filter, Milltek Downpipe, Decat and cat back system gets fitted this Thursday by revolution, Sachs paddle clutch and flywheel gets fitted in decmeber, i now need to buy a front mount, could i have your oppinions on this intercoolerplease, i was going to buy a forge fmic from revolution for £780 fitted, I know these are the dogs ballox but i cant justify spending an extra £550 if its not necesary if this one will be alright. After im finished i will be planning on a stage 2 remap, and in the future fit a hybrid Turbo, so want the fmic while ive got the cash and before the map. Its for a A3 sport PD130.

Heres the link to the front mount, a few of my mates said forge is very good but you just pay for the name and said this one should be fine.
Oppinions appriciated.

hi also have the same issue looking for a fmic for my pd1 30 audi!! struggling to find one that will fit correctly i spoke to darkside and they dont even make a fmic for them :? did you buy this kit on ebay ??? thanks josh
 
it should flow well as all the pipework and core is 2.5"... The core is a little small though and may not provide sufficient heat transfer over a lager core. Either way it will be better than standard!

Also, in my experience the pipe work in these ebay kits often looks a bit untidy. You're likely to loose your fogs and have pipe work hanging out the front.
