I have RRE front mount on my Eclipse, works good, fits inside the bumper. If you want more power int he future I would suggest going somewhere else.

I have the same intercooler, and I'm pushing around 300 whp and with a 14b at 18lbs and my intake temp will rise to around 130 with this intercooler. For a close to stock set up it is great, amazing response very good throttle response, but can't handle a lot of power.

Fit's great too.

I have a cx racing rep of that exact intercooler. Was good for 320hp at 24 psi of boost on a e3 16g. If you have something bigger or have higher plans go with a ets core or punishment racing core.
 

300+ whp is pretty amazing! I have a evo8 IC setup with jonvr pipe setup. last time I got up on the dyno, I was pushing only about 240WHP on 19-20psi of boost. This tells me, IC size and capacity is only good if you have other mods to support it. I am also running 16G turbo with my setup. I will be very happy if I can reach 300+whp at 24psi.

I have a built engine with a Polished head, OS valves, 8.5:1 compression with 20degrees timing on E85. That's how I got to the 300 mark.

It's not stock.
 

Thanks for the update! I have stock engine but still hope to get some increase horses with the E85 tune.

I have the evo 8/9 FMIC, but I have an evo III bumper. Here is a pic without the bumper, I built a new crash.



And here is the piping I made (The one with blue coupling, the other one was my temporary one)
