FMIC install was very simple...only had to trim ONE little piece of plactic to fit one of the IC brackets...didnt have to trim the undertray at all...i did have to take the front grille out b/c it wouldnt fit unless i trimmed it...but i dint want to trim anything obvious so i just left it off...install from start to finish took me a little less than an hour

quality on the IC is top notch...although its powdercoated which kind of worries me...i will just have to do some temp tests and make sure its still efficient...otherwise im extremely happy with it (i got it for a REALLY good price too)

ps: ive got s-techs in the living room just waiting on a day to install them...so dont worry about the ride height

 

The FMIC looks great! if you don't mind me asking, how much did you get it for? Any noticeable differences compared to the stock one power wise?

 

Looks great man. That front mount is bad a s s

 

That looks awesome, but were you wearing bowling shoes while doing this?

 

no those are my pimp *** red suede shoes...i have blue ones too..now i just need some yellow ones

the IC i got new for $490 shipped...retails for around $900 i think

 

damn thats is NICE.... and you got it for cheap..... im not mad at you at all....

 

very nice, very hot

 

are those 7 tails or evodave tails, they look great

 

did you get that heat shielf from lancershop?

 

Nice looking car

 

do you still get black soot after installing the heat shield?

 

They are EvoDave overlays...i decided to spend the extra $350 i saved on go-fast stuff

yes!


Thank you...i have fidanza cam gears, tein s-techs, dejontool upper ic pipe, gram light 57s (when spring comes), and just installed a cusco rear c/f strut bar...hope to get more pics up soon with that stuff on

 

Do you have something on your license plate or did you blur it out?

Very nice IS for that price, may I ask where you got it from? Any differences in driving the car after installing the FMIC?

 

You say the fmic is powdercoated? the fins themselves or just the side pipes, etc? I think it would lower the efficiency if the fins were powdercoated.

anyways, the fit looks great! Good job.

 

there are some types of powercoating that will increase efficency in IC applications
