Aftercooler vs Intercooler for S/C setup
Dang I read this thread now, alot of posts with correct info.
My experience:
UR FMIC on my car with a 3.2 pulley netted me 323whp and 9/10 psi. Once I swapped for a CT AC I free'd up the 2 psi I lost and was able to make 361whp. Like another memeber said, I wanted more HP and the FMIC was limiting me. I do have heat soaking issues, but I will be buying a heat exchanger with a nice fan on it to assist in cooling the water. The only test I was able to do with heat soaking was when I was at the drag strip and no air was blowing on the heat exchanger. I have NOT tested this while driving on a circuit track.
I do not beleive in the FMIC on the Vortec/SOS/CT kits. The best thing to do is to get a vented hood and get a larger heat exchanger, or buy a heat exchanger with a huge fan.

Clocking the SC isnt really a bit deal. But I do know that the non AC CTSC kits need to clock the sc for the after cooler, and the UR FMIC. This is from my own hands on experience.
