well if i am telling the truth it's one off ebay called XSpower. and for once it wasn't a bad buy. lined up perfect and was easy to install.

I'll be moving the front license plate as well, just trying to figure out where i am gonna put it.

Nice dude.
I was actually checking the ones on eBay out and I heard they were great. I will eventually get a BFMIC, just not yet.

Notice any difference with the bigger intercooler?

In Japan the street racers put the front plate on hinges so at higher speeds it folds up into the bumper. I always thought that was a cool idea!

well just a piece of info i'll throw out there. quickwhips used to, if not still does, use the xspower cores for their intercoolers. infact the old quickwhips IC's used to say XSPOWER on them. i know cause my roommate has one. i have a current quickwhips and it actually says quickwhips. so idk if they changed.

they look very similar to me...

I was over on TurboDodge.com and they were saying that the XSPower stuff is complete junk except for their intercoolers. Been thinking about picking up one for the Daytona.

Wish I could. I want an intercooler with the inlet/outlet on the same side. I'm not too keen on using any SRT-style intercooler because it would mean mega-additional piping for my configuration.

Well had a bad day at the track lol. i went to KCIR for the high school drags. Was in line waiting to race and a car behind me started on fire. Well a guy for KCIR started to run over to the car and his radio fell off his hip and i guess he fell over near my car. His radio flew up and slammed into my door leaving a nice little mark and also scratching my rear door. good thing is their insurance will fix it. then i ran against a Grand Prix GTP supercharged. He had me from the line cause my damn wheel hop and i tried to take off to high of an RPM. After the wheel hop settled down i took him around 1/8 marker and rolled a 14.6 at 103mph. I need to work on my launches ><

does bfmic make a huge difference? i never really drove one without a bfmic so i cant really tell. has the performance been tracked from stock to modified? what would be the gains?

there is a shoot-out over on srtforums.com comparing a few different ones for hp gain, boost loss, and air temp. i know with mine when i put it on i noticed a nice pick up in power in the upper rpms. boost did go down but i compensated with the wastegate.
