My 1.8t FMIC install project.
« on: 25 April 2009, 19:39 »
we have been playing with a few ICs over the past week and so far the best combination we have come up with is in the pics below.  A bit of cutting the bumper and cross member to get a neat fit without of making the IC look chavy, plus the all the pipe will be meeting up to the pipes where the oem ic fits.

Should be round £200-£250 depending on what its going to cost to have a pipe made up which will house the map sensor and connect the cold side of the ic to the tb ic pipe.

What FMIC and pipes are they?

The IC is from the usa the same type which some of the vortex 1.8t guys are using, but with our own pipe work setup.  We have 3 sizes of this style IC to play with but the one in the pic is the best fit once a small section of the cross member has been cut out to allow the ic to moce up 30mm and bolt on flush.
