CSF stole ATM'S design. That's it. I don't know how it happened, but apparently it did. With that said, I do not want any involvement in the bickering that I assume is going to follow. |

There's way too much talk and not enough data posted from the parties involved. What happened to the comparison data and the wager? VRSF claimed to have lined up several people and even mentioned completed third party testing, but nothing was ever posted. CSF has become silent and hasn't offered much clarity on their product vs ATM. Not sure if it's just me, but I find this more pathetic and laughable at this point considering the amount of volunteers and the time passed since the original post about comparison/wager.

Looking to complete a stage 2 93 BM3 tune.
Already have a Fabspeed Catted DP. Car is equipped with MPE. What is the recommended FMIC for my application? Currently leaning towards an ATM with VRSF pipes. My main concern is not wanting to introduce too much lag. |

I know you've answered this a million times but I didn't quite see my setup listed.
Dinan exhaust, res delete and FI catted dp. Located in hot ass Dallas, TX where I can def feel heat soak during the summers. Is CSF too much for my setup? I don't plan on anymore mods than this any time soon. |

CSF would be perfect for your setup as any other high density 6" intercooler.

I agree, and I went ahead and bought one of the ATM units. So, if anyone here is running something like the VF-stage 2 tune or similar, and wants to buy my Active Autowerke intercooler with less than 5k miles on it, for cheap, please PM me.
I will be running a pure stage 2 turbo with inlet pipe, precision raceworks ignition kit, DV+ and 1st gen ///M Perforance Exhaust with Bluetooth controller and TTFS/XDI HPFP (fueling). These are all new additions and / or replacements for my current FBO setup with VF stage 2. Anyway, check out this bad boy! |

Hey Mike,
Noticing that anyone with at least a Stage 2 is being recommended the larger core. Is this because of the need for more cooling? What about the pressure drop from the larger core on a stock turbo? Is the quicker spool times because of the downpipe offsetting the lag of the increased IC volume? |

Just finished going through all 10 pages here and am still bewildered as to what is best solution based on my setup/future mods. Seems recommendations are all over the place and sometimes contradictory.
Currently have stock turbo, stock exhaust, fabspeed cat. Don't track but would some day like to...and if I did, it would be very rare. Live in southern Ontario where summers are hot and humid. Don't drive the car in winter. So the purpose for me is basically some spirited street driving when the opportunity presents itself. -Future plans are at minimum bm3 stg 1. -Chance I go stg 2 but would unlikely include a new turbo. -I have easy access to 93+ octane fuel. Mike at xph recommended a 5" AA or vrsf. However I've also seen him recommended larger 6" IC's to others with similar setups and aspirations. Of course, balance is everything and I definitely don't want to introduce too much lag. This would likely mean a 5" or something lower density. But would like to attempt to future proof myself. VRSF mentioned a middle of the road option was in development back in December. Tiago, if you are reading this, how is that project coming along? For you guys out there who have been around the block when it comes to tuning/performance mods, recommend I consider for my IC? |
