stock bumper ok for intercooler
i'm looking at getting the greddy tt kit but not sure if i just bite the bullet and spend more and get the jwt kit because the intercooler is meant for the oem front like the aps is
and the greddy is just a normal rectangle and will be blocked somewhat by the oem ......someone wanna help me??
or should i be fine and i'm just worrying too much?? i'd rather not get a new bumper

Getting an IC is one thing but fabricating the piping is another thing. Are you prepared to spend some $$$ on making it fit? Unless you are dead serious on keeping the Stock Bumper then getting a new bumper that has a much better Air Flow will be cheaper and not to mention will perform better. Even with the JWT FMIC and your stock bumper, I don't think you will get MAX Air Flow since the stock bumper only have a small opening. Oh, those twin FMIC are not cheap either.

http://www.speedforceracing.com/ you can retain all the supports and keep the stock bumper about the same price as the greddy intercooler. 1400- 1500

i am in the same boat, starting to deisgn my own kit and probably going with a Nismo bumper down the road, my question is, if you do go with SFR kit, would that affect the performance of the kit? IE to much piping and loss of pressure? (sorry sort of new to this, trying to learn as much as possible)

+1 You really have to be dead set on sticking with the OEM bumper or the nismo bumper to get the twin intercooler setup for a Greddy kit. If you want that FMIC then you might as well go get th JWT kit coz the IC itself plus custom piping will not be worth it IMHO.
