I also have the Blitz FMIC. I think it is the best one available as well. No hacking up the front bumper either.

Yes the AC will stay. Laujesse had one for sale used but it sold already. The blitz puts your AC and Radiator in a semi-stock looking position so you will get more airflow to your radiator versus Greddy or Apex who stand them straight up behind the IC.

IMO.....Stock twins go with the Greddy 2row. Single turbo go with the Greddy 3 row, although you will hack your bumper a bit, but it looks bad *** when your finished. And it functions very well. I have the Apexi and would rather have went with the Greddy.

I've always been a fan of the blitz. But that is just my personal opinion. Here is a link to Blitz NA. http://www.blitz-na.com/Blitz_Products.htm

1) Lacks the up front and in your face Bling of the other IC's.
2) Comes with different colored piping.

I thought that was going to be the reason for not liking it because I know that the Apexi sits back in the front end a little bit. It seems to more less "hide" in the bumper opening on most of the cars I've seen it on, but I didn't see how it would hold back performance any. But just wanted to see if this is reason Ernie doesn't like it.

I'd like too, but I've got all new intercooler piping made now. Looks nice. Take a peek Sunday.
