what's up people! i recently installed the corksport fmic and i have to say it's a very nice piece! Before the fmic i had the ETS smic and turbohoses hardpipes. Now i would like to point out the fact that i did not change from a smic to a fmic because of the lack of performance. my first setup ran very well and kept me very competitive on da streets. Mazpro, Jcell, Avarela86 can vouch for me on the performance. I had a buddy who recently purchased a blue 2003.5 msp and he love the way my car ran and he offered to buy my setup. I thought what da hell and I was ready for a change. I will admit though that seeing my friends Jcell Perrin fmic and Avarela86 fmic they do look gangsta!
Now for the installed and the product. The install went very straight forward and corksport gives you everything you need to complete the install correctly. you will NEED and tool to cut metal because you have to cut a hole on each side under the fender where the tow plates are for the pipes to pass through. that is probably the only challenging part. if you have the proper tool it will go fine. The product quality is very nice and the representatives from corksport communicate with me well for the purchase and shippment, and the product arrived on time.
Now for the perfomance. the car charactics has changed but for the better. when i had the smic the car was very peppy, very responsive, like a supercharger, my spool up was crazy fast. before i go on let me list my mods at that time: ETS smic, turbohoses hardpipes, injen sr, atp wastegate, forge bpv, vibrant exhaust with hks hiper carbon ti muffler, denso ik22 sparkplugs,d2 coilovers. so like i was saying my spool up was crazy fast. Now the same mods just corksport fmic instead of the ets smic, oh and a aem dry flow fliter instead of pepboys special. the car is defeatly more beastly. I have a lot of more top end than with the smic. with the smic i had great low end and midrange. now i have great mid-top end range. It also raised the boost a little too. i usually stay between 8.5 and 9 where i was just 8 before..
so to sum it up i love my fmic and corksport did a great job on the product. now it's time for a little more boost and EMS
stay tuned! I want like to give a major shout to Avarela86 for the help and the install and shout to Mazpro for some help and tools. Thanks a lot fellas and holla back!
