Hi boys,
thanks for your kind words :daumenhoch:
as for the cars.....
the 99T is running a APC system now & at the last Rolling Road/Dyno it was at 160bhp..
the blue aero is in fact a X-LPT that is now running 185bhp with just a MBC & C900 intercooler fitted
the white 5 door is mine, its back on a Dyno in 3 weeks time..just to see what its kicking out now.
the Black car is a T8S at the moment its running 220/230bhp & has had a lot of time/money spent on it, I have driven it too.. its very fast, faster than most modified T16S that I have been in..
as for my FMIC its great the induction roar is louder too now,a bit more turbo lag.
but I can live with that as when it flies it flies
It holds 1 Bar of boost easy , the biggest benifit for a FMIC is the "COLD" intake temps now.
as for the cable ties/zip ties every FMIC I have seen in the UK has had them fitted to hold the intercooler (ie lightweight fixings)
the Black T8S has a FMIC & its held on with cable ties ..its been there for 2 years now without any problems..
I did not "clock" the compressor side of the turbo.. I was thinking about it but its a lot of work..
the owner of the black T8S has a FMIC as already mentioned & he has not "Clocked" his turbo as well ( his T8S is the fatsest T8 that we know of in the country)
the only other thing I was thinking about was fitting a T3 turbo from a T16 just for the bigger compressor..
speak soon Paul
