Building A Fmic
#1
Those of you that have made your own FMICs what did you use or how did you go about making an elbow for the throttle body?? I have no P/S or A/C in the way so it shouldnt be to hard for the piping its just that elbow thats got me wondering

Go find an N/A TB elbow...tip it upside down so its pointing towards the raditor (so to speak) then run your tubing up front.. The elbow is 3.5" o.d. and I doubt if you'll run that large of tubes. I run 2.5" so I had to buy two reducers 3.5" - 3" then 3" - 2.5" to accomidate the tubing.....make sense? You'll have to tap into the tubing for the air temp sensor and if you have an S5 motor you'll have to run an element inplace of the oil filler neck... there ya go! I run 18-22psi with a T60-1 turbo and never had a problem with leaking or cracks etc.
