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.

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

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.

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.

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

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

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.
