Yes, well there is practically no hardware needed. Just two bits to screw down the diverter. No need for factory brackets or other hardware that currently hold your ic in place.

Install is straight forward, i just did it last week. You will need to "move" one of the radiator(???) lines and its bracket that runs in front of stock intercooler, as that hole is used to tie down diverter. Also, you will need to remove black trim piece from under your hood, as m7 IC will not clear it. hope it helps

Couldn't tell you buddy! Didn't have a gauge, but I'm sure someone else has or you can find that info on m7's website.

yes, m7 does not provide that info on the website as well. They do claim 20-25HP gain at speeds of +60MPH. I am looking for an intake temp gauge to get that measurements, if I do get one, I'll post it here.

But my "butt dyno" has been telling me there is some HP gain during the last 3 weeks

Dash command has a intake air temp, not sure where it measures it though.

There are two ports on the backside of DFIC (facing driver)

price seems to be reasonable, i bought mine a month ago for $550 (mine had m7 heat shield with it though), especially, given the new ones run ~$1200

You bought it for $400 a year ago, used it now trying to sell it for more? Is there something wrong with the intercooler? I am interested but a little concerned.

Hi. The intercooler is probably in better condition than when I bought it since I've cleaned the internals and thus more efficient. Also, the ic has no moving parts, and therefore could not decrease in quality or integrity over time.

So much for Capitalism....buying low selling higher is what it's all about unless you live in the Eastern Bloc. The fact you saw a great deal 4 yrs ago and now selling for more is no reason to drop the price especially since new ones sell for so much more. Money in the bank IMO, hold off and get what its worth if you can. I had one for long time, ran stone cold to the touch even after a long drive to Boston.

GLWTS !

Finally someone who understands the concept! Thanks for your support. You've just convinced me to edit the price again lol. I'm in no rush to sell and I know these hold their value. Cheers!

Just imagine all that extra power you could have with this simple bolt on seriously though, after taking this off, I have noticed a significant power loss. Wish I had some data to back it up.
