Fitting FMIC's
« on: 31 January 2008, 12:06 »
How difficult is this? Anybody done one and got pics? Going to try and do some substancial bits on the mk4 this weekend because if you were was brands last night then you know I still got ALOT to do!

If anybody is from round my way and fancies lending a hand then I would be most grateful!

Ah nice! I got the r32 front so it should just fit directly behind it!

I know who you are now but if your not introduced then you dont know!

A FMIC just allows you to run higher boost at a comfortable level, but they say the increases are minimal 5-10 bhp
