i just got the ssautochrome ic in the mail all i have to say is wow! i bought it on sunday and its here 2 days later.. it comes with everything ! highly recommended!
I recommend it also just the only thing is that the stock BOV screws didn't match up with the TMIC. But hey 14 cents later everything worked.
il have pictures when i finish installingit tommrow... its being a b*tch about gettin on but for 225 bucks il make it fit
It's really nice to see intercoolers come down into reasonable price ranges. Between this and the Dynasty Auto one we have some decent choices without spending $500-600 or more.
this is takign way too much effort to just get on, seriouyl if someoen wants to buy it for 225, id sell it.
Don't lose hope -- ANY larger intercooler requires some wrestling. My Perrin took a good while to stick in. If you remove the driver side intercooler bracket you get a lot more room to play with.
Yeah my STI intercooler took forever, still isn't bolted on exactly proper but no leaks=good enough for me...
Would putting a spray lubricant on the hoses also make it easier to slip the IC in place? Can you reschedule the tune until after that nifty IC was in place, it might be worth the wait.
ive been trying for 7 hrs stiright... no luck im not machinically inclined at all. =( ugh so as i said its up for sale. make me an offer.
See if anybody close to you can help you out. It can be a bitch to install at times but doable. Don't give up!
some of the ebay IC's are physically IMPOSSIBLE to install. They are the wrong size/shape. Unfortunately this is one of those "You get what you pay for things." I know *SOME* ebay tmic's were able to be FORCED to fit, however we've had string of them lately that there was no way... SS
