Does anyone have to hand or could they point me in the right direction of the dimensions for a fmic for the coupe. Also, (I haven't checked the fitting guides yet) how much work is needed. Removing stuff isn't a problem, I mean pipework, elbows, anyhing need removing for it to fit i.e trimming of bumpers?

What design works best, or is favoured on the coupe? Bar and plate or tube and fin? Rough prices or a website would be good also, but only for guidance.
I installed a large fmic on my 1.5 T3 punto gt a couple of years back. Pace were the cooler of choice back then but I decided to experiment. I purchased a Spearco cooler from the states that was a tube and fin design. I also rigged up some temp sensors to see how efficiant it was, and intake temps at the manifold while running 1.3bar were 21 degrees, the same as the ambient temp! What kind of temps have you guys been seeing with which coolers?

Cheers.

if not Pro Alloy, then an evo 4/5/6/7/8 (& probably 9) fit nicely, and work very well, either genuine, aftermarket copy tube and fin or bar and plate will be fine.

I run one of Timpyeon's Pro Alloy copies, which is a bar and plate copy compared to the original tube and fin. TBH unless running silly power i dont think you'd notice the difference in how its made.
