Message	to DIY 2.5" IC and inlet piping with this arrangement. For SMICs, forget about it; I'd just pay the $900. Also, with an adequate 2-stage radiator e-fan, the a/c condenser fan can be eliminated to further aid in airflow and available space. Couldn't care less about the looks of FMIC, but I can see the benefits in this case. ________________Sig Separator________________________ ATTN: Zuberman The above message is not sponsored by my employer.
