questions about greddy FMIC?

I'm sure this has been covered before, but I searched, and there were soooooooooo many results I couldn't handle it.

so my questions are:
1: does it fit with the stock S5 fog lights?
2: does it fit with the stock battery location?
3: does it fit with the stock bumper support?
4: what modifications does it need to fit S4 cars?
5: what is the difference between V-spec and R-spec?
6: where is the cheapest place to get it?

thanks for any replies.

oh, and are there any other FMIC "kits" for cheaper for our cars?

I will probably be a close call to fit on an s5 bumper w/ the fog lights be i am sure there are ways around it.

Yes, it will fit with stock battery location but you must have to relocate leading coil.

With s4 cars, I know by personal experience that you have to remove stock bumper support.

With s4 cars, you need to remove bumper support of course, and have to trim a bit of the actual bumper for a nice snug fit with out forcing the bumper on. Usually good to use an air compressed grinding wheel for trimming.

Yes there is a difference in v or r spec intercoolers. The internal fin design is different therefore allowing a difference in efficiency and pressure drops. I have the v spec which is usually better for a more stock setup but the r is good w/ a greddy kit or huge upgrade. Remember bigger isn't always better. I think the v has a lower pressure drop than the r but the r is more efficient for HIGH horsepower meaning drag.

I ordered mine through titan motorsports for $940 which was the v-spec. Came in about 2-3 weeks and everything was complete. Only thing was that it didn't bring installing instructions.

I have the v-spec, i think the r-spec is for use with greddy turbo kits.

Mine fit in my s5 bumper without moving the fog lights, i relocated my battery and didn't need to move my leading coil.
