All you have to do is drive safe and keep your eyes open. I think a lot of the bashers wish they could have an intercooler

Roscoe,
I fully agree. The issue I ran into was there were no vertical row FMIC cores available that fit the S4...there are a few guys that went with that setup but had to have it done custom, which isnt bad. But seeing as I picked up my core for $120, I think I made out just fine...so it was worth it to be to cut out the extra part of the bumper.

BTW, thats a pretty intense looking setup you have going on there - is it yours?
