ya, my manifolds are 2-3 inches lower than FR manifolds. Plus, the "twist" in the turbo flange is different. So unless you want a sharp bend in whatever piping you are using to connect the two, get a custom FMIC, or see if FR can customize your FMIC for you...

I don't have a full race fmic, but I had to move the backdoor on my intercooler way up(probably because I didn't trim the bumper support).
If you find a good welder he can patch the old hole and relocate it. You won't even be able to tell where the old one was.. There's a pic in my avatar.

you can just buy the core and create a backdoor setup by test fitting the compressor to intercooler endtank......then just weld in a piping and bead roll the end.....just an idea....i'm thinking of setting up my intercooler like FR but using a inlnepro mani and a pwr civic radiator in the teg

you really don't even have to bead roll the end on the backdoor.. It can't go anywhere if the intercooler is mounted good and you use t bolt clamps. My $.02
