fitted my forge fmic to my fr 20vt this morning with the help of spaniels fr very simple to do few problems hit us but only things like angles of the pipes and stuff like that.
has to be said dan nearly cut his finger off trimming some of the bumper lol but that was only down side to the day!
first impressions are it just pulls upto the 7k mark and also has improved the engine note aswel so im really happy with it

These are a few pics of the kit!

it pulls alot harder i found after the ecu adapted as it wasnt boosting as much roght away but few miles and that and its back to what it was! also the noise the engine makes now is so much better and also enhances the whoosh noise as well and it always feels good now not affected by the heat now lol!
