I will definitely work to do a group buy but MAP will be in play, I'll see if Matt will allow an initial setup like that.

Great job Matt, the finishing is amazing not to mention the log sheet, it's like the Meth is on.

While I'd be in for a group buy, it'd be nice to eventually see some actual numbers of how this performs.  What's supposed to be the advantage of this IC?


  • Amount of air it can flow
  • cooling capability
  • BOTH?

I know normal driving (staying out of boost) in anywhere from 65 F to 95 F ambient, I normally see a temp difference of about 30 degrees between ambient and IAT2.

2003 Mustang Cobra 'vert, 456 rwhp, with mods (gone)
2002 MB C32 AMG (gone)
1997 Cobra 'vert, Vortech'd (gone)

30 degrees is a LOT for staying out of boost.  Imagine what happens while IN boost.  Why spraying with meth is essential to added power.  Check out some of the datalogs posted throughout this forum.  You can see the temp rises on WOT runs for yourself.  Pretty shocking.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

EXACTLY!  I'm not trying to poo-poo this...I'm VERY interested!  I'm just hoping we get to see some stats or expectations, before purchasing.

These numbers are for the 2nd gen Edge Sport with custom intercooler, at cruise etc.  But it should give you an idea what a custom IC can do.  Gearhead IC info I posted earlier.



Line color:
Dark red flat: ambient temp
Dark Red: TIP KPA
Blue thin: Vehicle Speed
Blue Thick: Charge temp

I have been on the phone with Matt a bit lately... this WILL require a retune for sure...I've seen the datalogs and there are changes to the wastegate to accommodate the bigger IC among other things.

I did speak to LMS about this as well, and they will require at least a couple guys to get theirs dyno tuned before they offer a remote tune for it.

I am on the list to get one when they come out. So we will see! Money is already set aside.

On a side note... this IC coupled with the bigger HPFP and E30 should practically eliminate the need for meth to get into the lower 12's consistently and safely....

That would be awesome. I am going to see what the general consensus is when people start receiving them before I go all in.

sure hoping Matt decides to charge an install price and I can drive to him and have it installed.

I'm excited too, and am on board to be within that 1st grouping of owners to receive them.

I'm sure LMS will be interested in tuning with it too, as I and BJ/SBS will be vying for dyno time respectively.

Although a group buy sounds great, and will benefit many, I don't mind being in that 1st group to pay full price. I mean after all, it's nice for Matt @ GH to recoup his costs after all.

It's also super important to reward those few vendors still left out there, that are investing in the R&D for the platform, as well as doing what they can, to propel the platform forward even further.

Getting more and more excited about this as the days keep ticking by.......

Not gonna lie, this, a CHRA upgrade, and HPFP are all on my "wish" list.

Intercooler really should be first on the list.  Strengthen the core first.
