looks awesome!

06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC

Thanks man. It was a long day today... took me 3 hours just to track down a battery that will fit with the more restictive space.

Looks good. Do you have a boost gauge to see how boost pressure is affected?

MysTiKchRis

Sweet hope you don’t lose too much pressure. It sure doesn’t look like the one on Neils cars.

06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC

OOOOOh, Nice man I havent seen your new 2-tone pait job yet.

but ya I have a Autometer CF series mechanical boost gauge.

06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC

As everybody is pointing out though, I am aware I may lose a psi or 2, but isnt the point of intercooling so you can up the boost..

rhythmnsmoke

lol....you have a thread, and we are talking about the same stuff over in another one. Ok, we can discuss further here if need be.

Looks great! Im in the process of saving for an intercooler for my stage 0 zpi kit, and soon upgrading to stage 1! I like the super white, my personal favorite!

06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC

Back up for sale, took it off the car. PM if interested.

MysTiKchRis

HAHAHA DAM is it that Bad?

06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC

Nope, my brakes went out... and I have no money to replace them, so something has to go...

06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC

I didn't even actually finish installing it when I was looking at/inspecting other parts of my car and saw that my brakes look past due for a change. So I put it back to "stock" non-FMIC.

Wow on and off

06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC

Ya, sucks. But hey I figured I have a Fujita CAI on the way anyways... so put that on and a WillWood BBK. It's all good.

Ok so you need new break pads and that forces you to sell the fmic? Something sounds wrong here but if I'm missing something let me know. Break pads are not expensive and if you are installing your own fmic then I assume you can do your own pads but again could be wrong. I can't really believe after all the work you put into trying to install it you wouldn't at least see the results. From an outsiders perspective, it looks like you got it installed, found you lost 2 psi across the whole powerband, and now you want to get rid of it without speaking of what happened to be able to sell. Again all a huge assumption but I hope no one with a supercharger installs an fmic without water/meth.

06SuperWhite_SoCal_tC

I need new brakes, and the real reason sorta is my job just cut like 12 hours out of my schedule... So Im kinda sorta Broke right now, and Im looking for a new job.

Nick06tC

I agree, why would you sell something so expensive that works, to buy something so cheap? brakes are chump change compared to the other money you have into the ride. Is there honestly no other problems with the FMIC setup?

I'm sure if you sell the fmic kit you are gonna lose more money than the brake pads would be. I wuold at least finish putting it on and dyno it get some numbers to show it works and then sell it if you still need the money at least you would have dyno numbers to show which in my mind would make people want to buy it more.

sounds real fishy to mee
