Default to air or to water?

I'm deciding between the Greddy GSR air-water intercooler and the Greddy Type 31 FMIC. I like the air-water because it works well, it's hidden, and there is less piping. I don't like the reservoir because it'll be difficult to find a place to put it. There would be a lot of hoses running around.

The advantages of the FMIC. It's less complicated. I already have most of the intercooler piping and the intercooler. People will hear the turbo, bov, so it's not like the FMIC is going to make much of a difference.

What do you guys think? I haven't heard of the Greddy air-water until a friend showed it to me.

I think you should just go with air-to-air since you have all the parts already. If you are not worried about finances, then go with the air-towater depending on how it is. Keep and eye out for the size of the heat exchanger that the a-w uses.

I just want to go witht something a little different, the air-to-water. I just don't know what to do with the water canister. Anyone have pics of a street air-water intercooler setup?

I'll probably just give up on the air-water idea later on, but I'm a little inspired now. Thanks.
