Fmic For Stock S2 Front Bar

[gotRICE?]

i wouldnt bother with a side mount

once you turn the boost up and crank up the exhaust i believe the side mount in the side locaiton is a just a big heater panel

i dont believe you get the gains you get from a decent core in the front of the car

Id have to agree, even tho there is dyno proof they work, i know that in mine with the usual bolt ons, the R34 sidemount i had was too hot to touch after a good spirited drive. I dont think there is sufficient airflow on my front bar, could be different on the normal S2 Front end tho.

I just got back from a trackday last night. Dam impressed with the Blitz. The "hot" side of the FMIC was cool to touch, and the "cold" side was ICE cold. Must be doing something right. And the J-Pipe was also cool-warm after coming back in from a good 5 laps of hard driving.

This is mine, Was a second hand custom made FMIC.

The reo had to be cut, but I just marked where I wanted it cut then took it to the local panel beaters. They cut it, primed and painted it for me for a carton.

ok...I never considered a r34 smic. Basically longer term im wanting to running higher boost on the stock turbo (exhaust is already done).

As car is a daily and reliable driver i want to keep it that way, so thought FMIC would be sensible in first step before mucking around.

Finchy33. My front bar is the same as yours. Any chance you have front on pics? I'm liking what your saying about the minor trimming only.

thanks

I ran higher boost with no problems on r34 side mount.

Each to their own i guess. I had no issues with mine even on track days And those spirited drives.

But i guess on a long term basic a fmic would be a good upgrade to have!!

Yeah thats what im saying.

I Just think the front bar i have isnt too well designed for airflow. So FMIC i went

Well ive gota fmic on my r33 series 2, bolted just under the rio bar. No idea what brand it is but it works well! The piping runs through the factory holes on the pod filter side of the engine bay...none of that cutting through the left hand guard under the washer container.
