Has anyone completely removed their front crash bar? I am thinking if i moved that I could cut out the number plate recess and allow alot more air into my FMIC, and just have a square motorbike no. plate at the side. But is it a very stupid idea (safety wise)? My bro had to do this to his...

my k03s arrived from the states today and I'm booked into Impossible Performance next friday for fitting. (£200 for fitting inc gaskets etc and mapping :) ) Apparently you don't necessarily need a 4bar fpr with a k03s..I was told it depends on the condition of your fuel pump? Is that right...

Hi for all of you who havnt seen my previous posts heres a recap, I bought a universal intercooler off ebay for around £100, i then used intercooler pipes off a Ford Focus C-Max and some straight metal pipe to make the pipework. In all it cost me around £140. The intercooler looks the part imo...

After a winter of collecting salt & road grime, my Forge FMIC is looking a bit minging :( First question, can it be cleaned with the bumper on (does the centre grille pop out?) or is it a bumper off job? (It's an LCR by the way... if that makes any difference? :shrug: ) Secondly, what's...

Right the time has come to get a fmic now there are a few i have seen that are complete packages but what im after are some alternatives as they are a bit pricey unless they can do them for a good price?? ;) ;) Have seen forge one which comes with everything and also seen the ADB one, but...

i have recently posted this in a thread :whistle: but thought that it might be of benifit to everybody! :D got this diagram from my local stealer (Droitwich, Worcs), thought i'd share it to make the FMIC conversion pricing, installation process etc a lot easier! ;) was told if i quote...

Guys let me pick your brains. Ive been in negotiations with a intercooler fabricator in getting a custom cooler made for my car. Ive had my bumper off and supplied him with dimensions with the room I have to play with (not a lot! lol) Now Im not after people telling me that It wont work or...

been looking at the intercooler on the Forge site for the MK1 Leon Cupra (2001) and its a twin pass right? both end tanks at one side have always read that there is a pressure drop with twin pass FMIC's do any other well known companies do FMIC for the Leon Cupra which are single pass?

I know we're not supposed to link direct to ebay... But this is a bargain and should be snatched up as quick as possible for someone thinking about FMIC conversion...

You've probably heard this heaps of times, where's the cheapest place to get a front mounted intercooler? Im not after anything Universal, basically just a bolt on job.

hi, im fitting a laguna fmic to my cupra and have got all pipes from sfs but i need the hard pipe, wot does everyone use?

As ive already posted this in the Mk3 section, i thought i'd share it with everyone......I know it needs a clean and i need a new cupra badge but see what you think::D

Ok then boys.....Its been a long time coming, finally saved up the cash and did it all within 2 days of each other. did the tip and the jabbasport induction kit first and then had a trip down to Forge for the cooler 2 days later. Jabba induction: (courtesy of david_smith_909).....Cheers...

Just finished fitting my Forge FMIC :funk: but whilst doing it i have notice quite a large amount of oil in the bottom of the hoses that i needed to remove! :confused: Should this be there or is this a sign of something bad? :(
