Default Griffin Front Mount Intercooler ordered
I placed an order today for the Griffin FMIC, its identical to PSJ's, its going to have the same mounting location, not sure if we are running the piping the exact same, but if so the battery goes to the back.......

Right now my intake temps with the twin intercoolers are around 160...thats HOT...

I hope to have intake temps around 90 degrees after many many pulls......

I'm also going to be ordering a 3.2" blower pulley to go on the blower to replace the current 3.4" thats on there......I'll have a 51.5" belt to go on it as well.....

I'm currently making 11psi on the street on a cool night.......

What kind of boost can I expect with the FMIC and the smaller pulley?

You should go mid to low 10's. 160 IAT's are really hot.

IrvineWS6 here is a pic of the intercooler.... Install shouldn't be too hard at all, if you are use to fabbing up stuff.



If you go back a few pages you will see this i.c installed in PSJ's bad ride.
