Are you just looking for a better intercooler or do you have some other mods in mind ?? The IPD one is good for an upgrade but for bigger turbos, injectors and tunes people seen to opt for a FMIC setup.

Well if im planning to upgrade to IPD's stage 3 right after my stage 0 is complete along with all the things between, i dont plan to go any higher then that so i dont know if i need the FMIC but the price of IPD's intercooler just seems high.

IMHO, I'd do an FMIC over iPd's intercooler. It'll be cheaper and it will no longer be sandwiched in between the AC condenser and the radiator.

A FMIC is about the last thing I have left to do on my 850R.
