[QUOTE="saru-kun, post: 1450858, member: 1524"] IMHO the stock FD has pretty questionable cooling and intercooling systems from the factory, ironically considering its engine is one of the hottest running ones around... Mods would be centred on heat control with upgraded radiators, tip top coolant mix; basically a very sound, working system. New silicone hoses are highly recommended as they are pretty much the lifelines of the seq twins. Pop one out and you might lose a few expensive items. Think of it as insurance :_: An upgraded Stock Mount Intercooler would suffice if you're running the stock twins, and again, IMHO I prefer SMIC as the pipes are pretty short compared to a FMIC setup, thus reducing lag (by how much, I don't know...I don't have neither because I drive a Wira ^^) Regarding the PowerFC, phat7 here is DA MAN to talk to but to me, the system is a worthwhile upgrade even if your car is in stock trim as there are many things that can be refined. Having a standalone also gives you the leeway to go single turbo next time in any case you grow tired of the power (or of troubleshooting :shades_smile: ) the twins. Cheers [/QUOTE]
