You can "make" it fit. But the poblem is that it hits the a/c line and I believe it may hit in another spot also.....but it's possible. If you are on the stock turbo though it's not really needed.

^ seriously, you can do like I did......I had the TXS TMIC. I sold it for $700 then bought the SSAC FMIC for $300 and put the other $400 in better areas.

you can force that I/C on, but it's a bitch and a half and it rubs. I had the MRT (which is apparently bigger than the TXS) and I made it work. I noticed immediate improvement when I put it on, though, so TMIC's aren't for nothing!

The SSAC fmic/core is actually larger and is proven to flow better than the turbo XS fmic.

The ssac has all beaded piping, and the couplers are a 5 layer coupler. PLUS it came with ALL T bolts. Ive never had the piping blow out or anything. I love it.
