Can you please post or PM the install instructions for the Avo kit? I'm seriously considering it and would like to see the process.

I don't think you should ever have to build your cooling system/oil cooling around your intercooler size. Should be the other way around. Maybe there should be more IC options out of the box or something more compatible.
And it truly is coming down to your tuner. We have about 5 different major kits people are using now, all appear to have something good about them. But at the end of the day we only have a hand full of quality tuners.

I would like to point out that Tony also does amazing work remotely. He has personally tuned my car on the dyno a few times now but every once in a while I want to update one thing or another and after sending him one set of logs he has it resolved. (Just to clarify "resolved"...never had a problem with one of his tunes, ever. One time I wanted to fix an idle dip and no log was required and another time I noticed it running a little rich and he fixed it up perfect on the first shot)

So that's 3 FI installs within a short period of time all seemingly having bad luck with Visconti tuning. This is interesting. Then again I don't know how many perfect FI installs he's done so it's just something to think about. I will be going with the AVO kit and tune from him so I hope I don't see these issues.
