TMIC upgrade

I have seen a few pics of TMIC that were thicker than the stock one. I am looking to upgrade, but I don't want a front mount (I am wanting to keep it looking as stock as possible).

Does anyone have pics of an upgraded TMIC? Where can I find one?

get a front mount and paint it black, top mounts pretty much suck. It's not really the stock intercooler itself that sucks, its the location.

yeah, the heat from the engine just comes and soaks the IC and it doesn't really do what it's supposed to. I would sugest a front mount too. you could even get a smaller one that normal like an FD one or something.
