Top Mount Intercooler Q's

M155L3R · 05-21-2008, 09:47 AM

Just wondering a few questions about TMIC for an 04 STI

Looking around and going to Turbonetics web site, I was looking into getting the Spearco top mount but on the site it says no drive by wire, has anyone used the Spearco top mount on a drive by wire car or know if there is a drive by wire that Spearco sells??

And has anyone else run the APS top mount any pros or cons to the APS vs Spearco??

Future mods are going to be a SZ55 or SZ49 external waste gate,injectors,internals, heads, cams etc.

Many people on here run the Spearco with zero issues.
As far as the APS vs. Spearco, they are both pretty big and it usually comes down to preference. I had an ESX TMIC (rebadged Spearco) and loved it.

So if I understand correctly the Spearco does not come drive by wire, correct??

Not sure about the Spearco, but the APS does. I've had no issues, with fitment or performace.. Its a great piece....
