Default intercooler size for greddy 18g?

im thinking of upgrading my 15g to an 18g on my d16z6. right now i have the oldschool smaller greddy/trust fmic, its the one where both endtanks face towards the passanger side. i cant find anyspecs of this fmic online.

for those who know which fmic im talking about, would i need to upgrade it too. im looking for around 270ish whp if it matters.

i know the intercooler your talking about. I had it on my original greddy setup. It worked, but i never liked the way the piping worked.

Its a touch on the small side IMO, but should work. I think i have some pics I'll try to post up so everyone here know which one you are talking about.

I got the larger greddy FMIC and it works great. That one seems a bit small to me, but that's just my opinion.

oh, haha. all 3 actually won homecoming queen...lol. yeah i know alot of people from bethel. im actually in socal now at csulb.

what fmic are you running with the 18g? on my old hatch, i was running the 15g too with a normal fmic and my hot side piping was funky since the way the turbo sits pointing straight down. could of been because it was on an 89 hatch with super limited space.
