Question RX7 fashion IC...got one?

Anybody got this one? What was your installation experiance? I have a M2 Intake, I like the looks,design and price of the Greddy FMIC but the M2 airbox would have to go. and that's not an option.

You should look into the XS IC kit, I don't think they still make them, but Jason was looking into getting some done. I believe it uses the same core, but with better end tanks and better pipe design. Just a thought.

I have talked with XS about getting a limited run made. They are still real pricey. If we had enough we could possibly get the price down. I will check to see how much.

I'd be really interested in the XS fmic if it has the same core. I didni't get the RX7fashion fmic because I didn't like endtanks either. The picture wasn't working for me, can you send it to me or try putting it up again?
