I'm looking to buy an IC for my M235. I don't track the car, but I do occasionally take it on B road drives where I push it a bit, but nothing like the heat/load that would be experienced by a 10+ minute track session. If I ever did any track driving, it would be auto-x which is less than 2 minutes. I also occasionally wrap it out on the highway through 3rd and maybe a bit into 4th, but it's NEVER a back to back pull.

My car's power mods are the Dinantronics Stage 2 piggyback, HJS Euro 6 catted DP, M2 lower airbox, and MPE. I also have an FTP charge pipe. My IATs in city driving in 80-95 degree weather range from 105 to 125 degrees and typically hover around 20 to 30 degrees over ambient depending on if I'm stopped or cruising at 35-45 mph. At highway speed, it's typically 15 to 20 degrees over ambient. When ambient temps drop below 70, it's usually 10 to 15 degrees over ambient unless I'm stopped. During highway pulls, IATs go up an extra 10 to 15 degrees and then quickly back down after the run. I've never seen 120+ degrees on a highway pull.

Based on my driving and IAT data, I don't need a huge IC. I'm not even sure an upgraded IC will be that huge of an improvement. Anyway, I leaning towards the Wagner EVO I Competition IC because of it's smaller size, low weigh, tube/fin design, and German build quality.

I would love to hear from anyone that has one, especially anyone that fitted their FTP charge pipe to one since aftermarket CPs can be finicky with IC connections. Thanks.
