MattP Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Long time no speak my fellow Toyota owners as many of you are aware my car went away with the intention of changing 2 front wheel bearings well that was 4 years ago haha I'm finally getting time to reassemble the old banger.. Straight the point I'm looking at swapping from my Whifbitz SMIC and piping to either: https://www.wagner-tuning.uk/200001154.html?fbclid=IwAR36e5fBbxRdfZ1JZOrFHJiZrBCB1WhI38rP4Qb8AjqCETlO5E7dfpHmQlU Or https://www.extremeturbosystems.com/collections/supra-intercoolers/products/ets-93-98-toyota-supra-intercooler-kit Both In the 4 inch stock turbo setup. Does anyone run either of these in this setup and what can you tell me about them other than they are alledgedly not Chinese. Real world comparison charts etc are handy. All I have so far is buy ETS because.... Anyone got ducting solutions for them and does the lower bumper covers have to be removed? I remember going SMIC because all these front mounts seem half cooked and tbh it doesn't look like much has changed somebody tell me I'm wrong.

Dnk Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Is there any need if your on stock turbos ? Wish i'd just stayed with a side mount on my car rather than get drawn into the HKS intercooler club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattP Posted July 6, 2021 Author Share Posted July 6, 2021 Well hello Mr DNK the old guard is still around glorious. Well that was my conclusion years ago but my Whifbitz unit is causing fitment issues and I phoned Toyota out of curiosity yesterday to price a new smic which were £480 but are now discontinued. My hands are tied unless someone has a CW SMIC lying around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
