Fitted my $360 FMIC today

[Pommie]

I've already done the cheap ko4 & it's a ripper after running 6000 ks
I will let you know how the fmic goes but the quality looks good, even my mate who is a alloy fabricator was impressed. Still the proof will be in the running but the main reason I got it was for the heat soak, especially coming up to summer

Piping looks quite long. Interested to see how throttle response changes compared with the shorter/standard piping.

That's always the concern in my head when I see these FMIC installations

[Pommie]

Yes there is around a extra meter of piping compared to stock plus the extra 250mm width of the cooler. Still I will be happy with a bit of extra lag if I get the bonus of cool air. I will be running it tomorrow so we will see.

Well I finally took the car for a test drive and everything works fine. There is a slight bit of extra lag, around 300rpm more than before but it's always a trade off and when we get to the hot weather it will be worth it.
Now I just need to get it re-tuned.

I'm heading to the USA in 2 weeks time, so I'm seriously thinking about getting one of these kits when I am over there.
