hey ... im gonna upgrade to a FMIC when i install my radiator, exhaust, remove airpump, remove ACV, and all the bullshit



im not looking for a greddy or blitz or whatever to run a million psi....just something to keep the whole system cooler and run about 10-11 psi



i wanna buy a used I/C from another car or whatever but im just trying to find out what you guys think the optimal dimensions would be



i see people using NPR and stuff, i was thinking about it....im looking thru ebay and trying to find a nice 50 - 100 dollar fmic i can put in front of the radiator...



im gonna move the radiator back about 3-4 inches towards the engine to make space for the IC



anyways thanks in advance

ill check it out...thanks for the link erik...



no recommendations on size though?

FrestyleFC3S 05-12-2003 04:46 PM

WOAH THATS ******* AWESOME...



thats something like i was thinking of doing...cept im gonna pass on the intake part ... the radiator and FMIC looks awesome...maybe if i ever get haltech and ditch the afm ill pop the intake in there



but the sheath he has setup for the airflow to the FM and R is kickass





my new inspiration

I've got a Starion IC I'm trying to sell. $185 shipped to you. This is the only pic I have of it...

FrestyleFC3S 05-13-2003 12:07 AM

is it a stock IC...or are the endtanks modified and ****



if its stock starion ill buy it for 150 shipped...ill have to modify endtanks for 2.25 or 2.5" ...

ILUVMY88CABRIO 05-13-2003 12:10 AM

as far as I know they are the stock endtanks. I never had it installed in my car. I went the lazy route, and just bought the GReddy IC kit. I'll have to think about the $150, I paid $185 for it, and I don't really want to lose money on it. But money is kinda tight for me right now. So I'll let you know...

what are the dimensions of that greddy FMIC?
