I/C question

Who all is running an intercooler on their 04+? And did you go with the short stack or the full size? Are there clearance issues with the short stack on these? I know the full size needs that TB turndown for clearance, and I've read that the SSIC doesn't require a breather for the PCV or a modified LIM. I've been looking and found some used ones for sale (both styles), but I'm trying to figure out what other unmentioned parts I'd need to factor in to make things work. I don't want to go crazy either. An I/C is probably the last mod that I'd do, so I would think that a SSIC would suffice based on my mods.
 


Go full size IC. I'm running VC breather, billet fuel logs, inlet adapter, stock LIM w/ aluminum gasket to support it. Cooler supercharger and cooler air = more boost and more timing. You won't regret it, I haven't.

and youre running a valve cover breather for what reason? unless its just a temporary thing until you actually have a correctly functioning PCV system, i understand. if youre taking short cuts and running it with that for real, then i dont think you understand how your car runs and why that is a bad thing.

Did you have to use a different hood to clear the blower, or does it all fit under the stock setup?
