DSM's MSP hardpipe kit installed!!!

Most people don't really NEED an FMIC. Most people buy them cause they look cool. Our IC isn't that bad .
 
DSM- your pipes will definately fit TURBOHOSES SMIC,the only reason they won't work with factory pipes would be a sealing issue.

I used the SMIC,combined with turbohoses hardpipes on my car,and drove the s*** out of it,on a hot day.BIG improvement.
I definatly recamend thier SMIC over a FMIC,due to spool up time,and the SMIC takes a lot of abuse to heat soak.
L will be doing a write up on it as soon as I get the opertunity.

I think this is half true, because I definitely agree that most people don't need an fmic...how many of us are running that much boost where an smic won't be sufficient? I heard somewhere that most of the smic's are good for as much as 20 psi...But I do think that our specific intercooler is bad, not the fact that its a sidemount, but the actual design, it just doesn't flow and cool very well.

yes it just doesn't cool well at all. plastic has a tendancy to be crappy at disapating (sp) heat... ;)

I will most likely buy pipes from you in the future also. Unless you make an affordable FMIC and then I'll just wait. But of course we are all interested in this "secret project" of yours. Hopefully it consists of converting the 2.0 Liter into a cost-effective jet engine lol.
 
well next week 3 sets will be on their way to your fellow board members...hehe but trust me the pipes will be the prettiest thing you've ever seen...
