Starion IC?

I did a search on this IC and i didn't really find what i was looking for. I'm wondering if it's possible to use this on FD? If it is do you know if it's better than stock or worse?
Has anyone used it before and can it handle 12-14 psi on stock twins.

Thanks

NPR IC's are massive compared to the Starion ones. But, from what I have heard, you can run 20 PSI on a Starion IC and be fine.

is this true about starion IC? I just want to run 12 psi daily and 14 on ocassions. NPR is better i know that, but i can't find that one on Junk yard for around 50 bucks like i can Starion one. So i just want to know if Starion one will support 12-14 psi.

i came from the DSM world and i know DSM intercoolers suck they are like 53 % effecient they heat soak really bad and the starion FMIC wasn't even a upgrade worth doing for us dsm'ers so i doubt it is worth it for your car

well if you guys don't like the starion ic that much. What about that NPR Ic then. From what car did that came anyway and is it possible to mount that ic on front without puting my radiators verticaly? Also can i put the pipes through the duct where the Smic used to be?

Thanks
