Intercooler Kit

[Guest INASNT]

RB20LagWagon,

Thats effectively what my cooler (currently being stored in my wardrobe) does. My drivers (inlet) side tank has been modified so that I can run a pipe behind the core back to the stock piping on the passenger side. This requires minimal bends, next to no custom work because its basically a straight bit of pipe with one bend on the end.

GTST. you dont use that end of the core as the EXIT point, you use it as the ENTRY point so that the air has the shortest distance and least amount of time to be heated up on its way into the engine. If you had the end tank modified properly the effect can be minimised. ALOT of japanese kits do this for the RB20/25 motors, so it cant be that bad.

having the pipes come back like that is shit for flow and u end up using alot more lenght of total pipe.

As for the gibson car, just coz they did that in the 90's doesent mean there isent a better method of doing it these days.

I am very interested in this kit for an R34

My car is available in Melbourne for a trial fitting if required.

In fact my car is available for anybody to test any fitting on in Melbourne.

Call my car a fitting whore.

Yeh I had a similar setup on my 32

FORCE, I have seen a WRX with that exact setup (if the car is in melb, then it was probably that one with the big K&N).

I noticed that the pipe from the compressor to the cooler (or to the front of the car) appeared to be made of either mild steel, or something painted. It was corroded and / or flaking. I asked the shop that installed the kit, and they said that it comes like that in the kit.

Why only make all the visible pipes a nice shiny colour? I certainly wouldn't be happy with all the visible pipes made from quality materials, only to find inferior product where the piping is hidden.

You may have changed the kit since, and replaced that tubing with stainless / aluminium, but if this is what the kits are like I think forum goers have the right to complete disclosure.

Please don't take this the wrong way, I have seen your products and they are generally of good quality. I would in this case like to be proven wrong.

In this case you are wrong. I don't know who made the kit you saw but I assure you all of our FMIC kits have all pipes thin wall aluminium mandrel bent in one piece. The anodized finish in the picture in this forum carries to all pipes fitted.

We would never compromise a fittment to save a couple of bucks. As you said yourself the quality of our products are (in our opinion) second to none. We have many, very happy customers who can attest to that.

Hope this clears up any doubts you had in us.

Good enough for me mate, just raising the question - good to see you have not take it personally. The titanium-look anodizing does look very nice.

I love the piping it looks like a very neat and efficient design. But what about the core what are the dimensions specs ect.

Also can you still use the stock Blow off valve?
