I was just stating the fact that vendors only recommend items that they sell, going onto threads claiming that the products that are on their shelf are better. I see vendors jumping on newbies threads talking about the jb4 because they sell it, not even a mention of MHD so that the person can make their own sound decision (I know no one mentioned anything about MHD when I compared Cobb vs jb4 around 9 months ago). This is supposed to be a ULTIMATE fmic thread, so that should include ALL intercoolers, regardless if vendors here sell them or not. Newbies are going to be looking at this thread to make a decision on what to buy and they should have all the information, not just the info vendors give out for intercoolers they sell and "recommend" (because they sell it) |

We're releasing a larger steppped 7.5" FMIC with a denser/more aggressive fin pack in the next couple months that will be able to handle all the 650whp guys who are running larger turbos. Here's the size comparison against our current 7". Last edited by Tiago@VRSF; 03-09-2016 at 03:03 PM.. |
