idk the size of my fmic but it came from the greddy turbo kit for civic Si(99-00) its not
that big but you have to hack some of the frame behind the bumper and re route some
lines... but if you wanna go big you really have to cut some portions of the edm bumper
may be the flares and some inner trims that wouldnt be seen from the outside....




a litle bit of trimming from the inner part of the edm bumper wont hurt it...
G/L!!

just look for civic sized intercooler... theyre not that big probably good for 350hp or less!??
ive seen a lot of civic herein my area having the same size fmic, its not that showy and i
opt to use it since i dont want people to know that my V is boosted.. thats why after my
build/tune i immediately spray painted it flat black to make my V sleeper!

you might have issues w/ the pipings if your using those turbo kits but if youre gonna make
or custom made your pipes then youll find ways to make it all hidden behind the bumper!

good luck!

Where did you find your EDM front bumper, Ive checked a couple sites online that seem to have them labelled as discontinued
