Update! Intercooler and charge pipes have been installed, no issues so far. Also installed the WOT cooling plate! And she also got some new shoes and rubber this weekend

For me the images aren't showing up, just the file names seemingly. Glad you got everything installed though! I went back and checked my clamps a few times before putting the bumper back on because I was really trying to avoid boost leaks

haha, got some silver TEs on her. She is looking good now. I do have an issue I just noticed with the intercooler tho. The plastic seal under the intercooler are pushing up against the intercooler and is causing my front lip to bend a bit in the middle and the passenger side. Not sure if you had the same issue. I will most likely take the bumper back off and to make sure I put it back correctly, and thinking about cutting the plastic piece out so my lip isn’t bent lol.

There is a plastic piece under the stock intercooler that needs to be removed, if that is what you're talking about. Where it says remove 3rd clip that whole plastic piece has to come out since the IC is much bigger. (this is from my RSplitters instructions so it's unrelated).

I would say the FL5 PRL and RV6 ICs are the top units to look at. Some of the other options are interesting but way too expensive for basically no reason.
