FMIC core size
I'm trying to figure out what's a adequate size for an FMIC when dealing with our motors. I realize there are different variables to answering this question from desire boost level, available space and if you're willing to fabricate your bumper reinforcement to core design (plate/fin or tube/fin) Since plate/fin has been out longer and relatively cheaper let's stick with that one and let's say boost level of 10 lbs. I also realize the bigger a cooler the better, to some extent. So for you boosted guys (if you can remember) what's your core dimension, and for you guys who offer turbo kits what size core comes in your standard kit. Just the core and not the core and end tanks.
See ladies and gents, size does matter

(Virtually) No pressure loss... practically speaking, on a street car, you really can't get too big an FMIC... It may be a waste of money but you actually decrease pressure loss due to less resistance. All my piping will be hard pipes too. This baby flows over 900+ cfm with less than 1.5 psi drop across core... or I can try the 640hp rating (but I can do it only once, though
)

You pretty much sum it up, how persistant will one be with the air saw. Thank you gents
