Godspeed Version 2 FMIC Traditional style
Anyone try one of these yet? I typically support the vendors on here but the price makes it interesting. I would like to hear if anyone has tried their latest design. Want to know if this new one needs cutting or not and peoples opinions in general. Looking to get an FMIC this week.

link?
godspeed = bigtom = cxracing no? edit: found link: http://www.godspeedproject.com/bmw-1...-kit-version-2 For $600 I would go with the 4'' cxracing but that is me. One of the ST guys likes his. If you didn't want the cxracing why not go with the 7'' thick VRSF? Less expensive & deeper. Last edited by Torgus; 08-14-2013 at 03:18 PM.. |

I don't know the rules on posting links. The one I am referring to is not the big Tom one. It is 6x6. I found it on eBay. They call it version 2. It has mandrel bent pipes off the tanks versus the welded sharp turns.
Tim, that one is nice and looks damn close to the one I'm talking about. The VRSF unit is nice too. But not available till sep. So who knows when I'd get it. Tiago, PM me a price and date on the unit that doesn't require cutting. Thanks |

I am going to get the cxracing 4''. I don't mind cutting and all of the reviews have been great that I have read. I also get a 3'' charge pipe and meth bung with it which is a bonus. If It wasn't the cxracing I would definitely get the 7'' VRSF great price, great reviews. |

How much of a PITA is it to cut away material to fit the 6" or 7"? What about going back to stock? Would this be noticable with the stock unit back in after cutting?

I have to swap out my bumper anyhow so I have to take it all apart so I guess trimming really isnt a big deal. Tiago, what is best price shipped for the 5" and 7"?

If your in a rush i do not recomend the godspeed one or crx racing one. Not because of the intercoolers performance but because of other reasons. Godspeed is better because its in the oem location, but does it create a tight fit under the radiator to keep the same pressure in the engine bay that bmw designed it for? The CRX racing intercooler is very nice and big, but that one requires you to put it infront of your radiator causing the radiator to loose flow... 1) for the price godspeed is just not worth it (fitment is huge and without confirmed results its iffy), get vrsf instead. You'll also need to cut anyways. 2) AA is having a sale right now or $599 on there intercooler. If you need one now, buy this over godspeed. Sale ends soon so act fast! This company has a good reputation too. http://store.activeautowerke.com/act...sion-p212.aspx

Has anyone with a cxracing ever had issues not being able to properly cool down their car? Unless I am mistaken people track with that intercooler without issues...please link me to a thread if I am wrong.
