<center><img src="http://www.emotiongarage.com/images/forge/forgeSMIC.jpg"></center><p>This replaces the SMIC(Side mount intercooler) we have now with a bigger and thicker unit and uses the existing mounting. The cost is going to be around 425-475 depending on the amount of people who want it. Anyone interested?

Default At that price - i'd be interested - however - have we heard anything more about the 180 FMIC - Sean?

That's a pretty good price and will handle 300hp with ease based upon what Billy1.8T put to the wheels when he had the Forced Performance side mount which looks similar. While the FMIC is nice and all - I'd prefer the performance increase without the FMIC look.

This may work on the A4/Passat - as the side mounts look pretty similar.

Default The Forge 180 install is happening next week....My fabricator

The car will be in next week and should be done in about a week after that.

Default can we put this SMIC on the left side and use both?

as opposed to just swapping out the OEM one on the 180s.
