Post pics of your FMIC setup. Please post pics of piping and the way its ran also, please post also the fmic dimentions and piping size used. I am looking to add a FMIC to my SC setup and I want to get an idea of what is involved with this.

Upgrades: T-Trim, FMIC, Mondo, Projectors

*secondtonone317* · 01-01-2008, 08:33 PM

^ I like what you've done.......does it have to be a "name brand" FMIC, or will the ebay ones get the job done?

*matty* · 01-01-2008, 08:34 PM

The ebay ones get the job done just fine.

*The Wizard* · 01-02-2008, 02:45 PM

Ummmm.... pics are great, but the OP is also asking for dimensions of your IC's and pipe sizing......

i'm rocking the CA for now. I'll be happy with that while I'm getting a new convertible top put on the car and LOTS of suspension work.

kzoosho · 01-04-2008, 03:49 AM

Nice, mine is going to be a drift/drag car with a fully built sr20det motor from Mazworx!!! It should run mid 10's..

I thought about the sr but the ka has really won me over lately.

I'll have to second that. If I were to get an S13/S14 I'd stick to the KA. They make some serious #s on stock internals, its a super tough motor.

holy thread jack batman.

the CA isn't bad. its only running stock boost which is 6-7 psi. I've only been able to drive the car around my neighborhood since it is in desperate need of a back window. I'll probably just end up putting on a whole new Convertible top instead of just doing the window.

kzoosho · 01-04-2008, 08:12 PM

Wow we did jack this thread. To Bis sorry man i did post pics of my front mount

*secondtonone317* · 01-05-2008, 07:44 AM

aah.........dont worry about the thread jack, I saw and got an Idea of what has to be done

**mtrai760** · 01-05-2008, 08:22 AM

Alright, back on topic now....

*choray911* · 01-05-2008, 05:58 PM

Nice and clean with the foglights.

*The Wizard* · 01-05-2008, 06:39 PM

^^^Nice work!! How about an overall shot of the IC and piping with the bumper cover off? TIA

*secondtonone317* · 01-05-2008, 07:40 PM

seems like it will be easier to keep the pipes out of the way on the 5.5 gen in means of keeping the fogs

SlamdMax98 · 01-05-2008, 08:04 PM

I dont remember the exact dimensions, but I do believe that it is a 28x12x3 intercooler with all 3 inch piping on a vortech v2 blower, hope that this helps you out a little bit

running the piping down through the front to the intercooler instead of going through the fender, the blower is clocked downwards to eliminate a bend and the pipe that you see running into the fender is the CAI for the supercharger

if you look closely you can see the top of the Tial 50mm BOV mounted behind the drivers headlight inside the fender

the intercooler all bolted up into place with all the pipes ran

final shot of everything with the front bumper re-installed on the car

ya with my intercooler piping I have to get rid of the factory fog lights there was no other way of doing it which sucks

*choray911* · 01-06-2008, 02:22 PM

I didn't take any picks with the bumper off, but I'll see if I can post some soon. I got some HID's and I need to clean it up a bit anyway.
