I'm assuming for the £575 price you get hoses, and all parts needed to fit?

It DOES look a lot smaller than the forge version but would be good to see the stats as per above.

I've gone for a Forge one now anyway, and it should be with me soon (i hope!)

why arent you allowed to post it? :) you dont HAVE to buy a forge you know :)

Looks a good bit of kit, somebody will have to bite the bullet and see about temps, being front mounted, its going to be better than the SMIC either way!

its a long story guys i was just posting it on here to let you guys know that Pace have the FMIC on their website now which they didnt have whilst the group buy was on.

I have done some logs and the car is excellent and after finding out that the cause of the my drop in pressure was in fact a hole in one of my hoses since i have had that repaired i can say that the car feels amazing.

I think the lowest temp i saw last week when i logged was 12 degrees and the highest was 19 degrees that was at about 10pm with an outside temp of 4 degrees

it is smaller in height but it is thicker as it is a 2 row 40mm core rather than the S3 single row 60mm core i dont know what the forge LCR FMIC core size is

Can't really compare mine to bentaw's anyway - he's got an LCR and I've got an LC.... although probably not that much difference, would be fairer comparing LCR to LCR.
