Mark has posted just last week that we are still on time with a Tentative date of about 4 weeks


Folks to clarify, these deposits are to insure all participants commit to the purchase of the intercooler at time of shipment. The balance can be paid when these intercoolers are ready to ship. There are no refunds on deposits. I'm sure you will all be more than satisfied with this mod

On the list again

We liked the unit we put on the 09 JCW a lot. Since I had my tune last Friday, it is really apparent a larger IC is needed for my 07.

So, I'm on the helix list again, talked with Ralph yesterday.

A little late to the game again, so I hope a unit is available after they get them in 4 or 5 weeks.

Should work out great for a late October track lapping day.

I want/need to be on the 25 person list! Ready for payment today. It's still 96 degrees here in Southern California, and I love this intercooler.

None are available right now. Once the current GB is done/shipped out we will start to organize another one.

Possibly, but we are still looking into a reputable local annodizer and/or other solution.

FMIC in black...

... sounds like a bad idea to me.

Black enhances absorption of light energy.

You should try to go the other way, as far as you can - at least for the parts that are exposed to direct sunlight.

Not sure what you mean. The IC is located under the front bumper not under direct light.
