[brandonduley]

Looks like you're just missing the 27Won TIP lol! What exhaust do you have?

Only 27Won parts I don’t currently have for my car is the W1 turbo and FP back exhaust.

my current exhaust setup is;
27Won Catted Downpipe
27Won Front pipe
Magnaflow FP back

Out of curiosity, why didn't you go for the 27Won FP back exhaust? Do you have any other written reviews for the other 27Won parts you've gotten and how they've changed the car?

At the time the 27Won FP back exhaust was not released. The Magnaflow was the first exhaust piece I purchased, later added the 27Won FP & DP.

At this time, I do not have any other reviews of the parts I’ve put on my car, definitely something in the works though to put reviews of my experiences with all the 27Won products I’ve got. Stay tuned...

@brandonduley for 27won ICer do we need to trim/cut off the plastic trim like in case of PRL?

@brandonduley for 27won ICer do we need to trim/cut off the plastic trim like in case of PRL?

Yes because it is bigger. You would have to do the same for all bigger intercoolers. You can check out their installation guide it helps understand what's involved. It may seem like a lot but it's pretty easy.

Since you are a tech, how many labor hours/approx cost would you *estimate* a reputable independent shop charge for installing this FMIC on the Si. I know the cost will vary but I'm just trying to get a ballpark. Thanks!

I'd guess $300-500

had my friend who is an ASE master tech look up the rates, standard removal & reinstall is 1.1 hrs, but being aftermarket he estimated 2.5. So anywhere from $250-$350 was his estimate.
