PFS Intercooler Duct & Air Intake System

I was wondering if any one knew the difference between the PFS Intercooler Duct & Air Intake System and their Cool Charge Air Induction System. Obviously the Air Intake System comes with the intercooler duct. Also does any one have the PFS Intercooler Duct & Air Intake System. I was looking into getting it for real cheap unless anyone knows why I should go another route with different intake.

I have the IC with a Pettit style open air intake with heat shield...

have no idea what you are asking.

I think the cool charge...and air intake sys, are two ways of saying the same thing.

it's cool air because the intake takes air away from the IC duct...

I have the PFS intake and SMIC. You are just getting confused on the names.....

The complete system is an SMIC, duct, and intake box. The intake box draws air solely from the duct, just like the stock system, except without all the restrictions.

If you can get the system for a good price, get it. It's not state-of-the-art anymore but it still works very well for moderately modded cars.

I added a baffle to mine to try to force the intake to not take air through the intercooler. Not sure it helped. Not sure there was a problem. Sigh.

OK, I did order the Air Box and intercooler duct, but according to the instructions on the PFS website, I have to use their intercooler upgrade. Does anyone have the duct with the stock intercooler?

What I meant was, will the PFS intercooler duct bolt directly to the stock intercooler, and fit without any modifications? Does anyone have this setup?

Well that just blows, anyone interested in just the Airbox with K&N filter and intercooler duct. I will settle for $200?
