Love that intercooler! Seems to fit perfectly.
It does. They did a really good job designing it to be plug-n-play. A lot of the 4"+ fmics require cutting or other work to make them fit.
The only issue I've had is licp fitment and I took a 'bastard file' to the offending bracket while I was in there. I don't think it'll be an issue now.

Stock or aftermarket LICP?

UR. The stock one bolts to that bracket so obviously wouldn't be an issue.

Have a tuning appointment with Shane on the 31st. We'll throw the ID2000's and a Primo intake on there and finally see what it has in it.

^Good luck. You know all the pre-dyno checks I take it?

Put in lots of oil so I can properly lubricate the dyno. :)
If the car stays together @BIR on the 23rd then it should be fine. If it doesn't then I have a week to fix it.

Have only done a few things on the car this week...fiddled with the gauges (still don't work), installed Rexpeed carbon fiber hood vents (the usual, half-ass fitment), and used a tube of silicone on the fuel hanger cover. The pump was in & out of the car so many times that the black goop had no chance of holding it on anymore.
Front o2 still throws CELs...going to swap that out at Shawn's tomorrow. NAV is still flaky. I hate all this electrical crap.
The car itself is beast, though. Looking forward to BIR on Monday.
Primo has my intake mostly done so that'll be ready for the tune on the 31st.
