After collecting my fmic part for 5months i finally got round to fitting it this weekend.

Bit of chopping for the fmic to fit level

All piped up!

Right Side

Horn relocation Bracket

Bumper back on and even got to keep my fogs!

Very happy with the final result although it was a p.i.t.a to do, not noticed much difference tbh just a little more lag, but havent gave it a proper run yet.

which FMIC kit is this?

 

[DJ-LIAMC]

This is the type r fmic from toyosports, the rest was bought separate.

Nice work m8 good job in keeping the fogs. The reason for lag might be, your cooler is slightly to big and it takes a little longer to get up to pressure.

 

[DJ-LIAMC]

Cheers sam i knew there would be some lag, i had near to zero lag before this because of my 3" decat.

Nothing a remap wouldn't sort out

Yea it was this kit
http://www.toyosports.co.uk/25-turbo-intercooler-pipe-piping-diy-kit-64mm-blue-7299-1045-p.asp was only £59 when i bought it but they sent crap jubilee clips and rubber couplers so i bought decent ones separate, maybe they have upgraded the couplers and clips to suit the new price?
Not too sure if it will work for your auq engine as the inlet manifold is on the other side.

[wayne lcr]

how did you go on with the map pipe i dint fit mine yet going to sort it this sat just need to no how much to cut the battery tray liam if you can remember please mate.

wayne, with the map pipe, if you bore out some ply wood the same id as the inner bore of the map pipe. do this twice. then place the ply at each end on the pipe. make sure the ply is a tight fit. then hit the pipe using a hammer, until it fits, the ply wood will keep the ends of the map pipe nice and round, then theres no need to cut the battery tray. do you think that would work ??? just an idea i had
