Just installed UR UICP (2 pc) & EVO X FMIC, not a bad install took my time. Had to make sure I pushed all the pipes close together in order to place plastic cover back on. Did a little trimming with exacto knife on cover due new I/C piping is alittle bigger. Will post a pic tomorrow.

 

so no problem with the licp?

 

I went ahead with the install of my T1R pipes and EvoX FMIC two days ago, and had everything all in place and bolted down....but when I came to the lower IC pipe, the stock coupler from the RA wasn't big enough to stretch over the fittings. I worked on that for a good half hour and made it fit, but the IC was pushed about two inches towards the passenger side of the car, so that you couldn't bolt it back into place.

If you want to make it work, you're gonna need to either:

1. get a larger coupler and/or chop off about two inches from the stock RA lower IC pipe
2. suck it up and buy a stock EvoX lower IC pipe

I wasted a good 4 hours the other night trying to make things work, but I just ended up putting all of the stock stuff back on until the last parts arrive.

Gibby860: did you use the stock RA lower IC pipe?

 

no

I order a 2.5 extra coupler with my UICP to fit RA LICP and she all hooked up.

 

Ok cool, good to hear. When I get mine hooked up with the EvoX licp I'll add some pics.

 

stock lower pipe fits with Evo front mount, using Evo front-mount's coupler, NOT the RA.

Gibby, nice u finally got it installed; I thought u were going to get AMS's pipe, but still good choice nonetheless;

post pictures!

 

Haha yeah figured that out the hard way...I managed to muscle it on about 3/4" before giving up.

 

I originally wanted T1R (red) but UR UCIP fit my budget. Here are some pics.

 

Nice pics. Black is very low key and looks like it could be stock.

I bought the polished though. I want to install but seeing as though i will need to remove the bumper i'll just wait until i grab an intercooler and the lower piping and install all at once.

 

Gibby, do you have the GST ecu map for your car? or was it a custom tune?

 

you can do the UICP without taking the bumper off. its a little tough to do and easier if you have small or as i like to call them "mechanic" hands lol I did mine in about 20-30 mins. without removing the bumper.

 

Really? Hmmmm..... I will go and take off the plastic cover and see if my hands can get to it. If not then i'll wait, no biggy. Thanx

 

to make a little more room, disconnect the horn. That helped me out quite a bit too. gave me a little more hand and arm room to work with.

 

I jus did it. ****ed my hands up though . The clamp that held the coupler to the IC was a ***** to get loose, that is where all my time was spent. I never thought about taking off the horn, that would've made things easier since i had to maneuver under it. Anyways it looks great and just in time for my tune tomorrow. Thanx again

Now i got to go put my hands in ice.

 

lol no prob i had a prob getting the coupler off too. i just wiggled the Stock pipe loose by shaking it left and right till it came off. putting the aftermarket UICP on was a piece of cake though. But im glad you got it to work. once your hands recover from the icing let me know how you like your new mod and if you notice any sound difference
