For everyone who wants a GB, Procarparts is PROTOTYPING the FMIC, they are not manufacturing it, and I doubt MS will sell it through them. Correct?

 

['Sploder]

yeah that sounds about right. is there even a timeline for this product? like how long from prototype to production?

 

[122 Vega]

Well some of us waited for 8 months for our MSPs after we put our deposits down, so I figure maybe by Christmas. Then of course we'll know more about it than the dealers we have to order them from.

I don't think Procarparts is prototyping it, they are reveiwing it to provide feedback. I think above in the thread it does say that it is Mazdaspeed engineered using thier CAD design programs.

the hot pipe is so close to the radiator... i doubt an AWR unit would fit...

How thick is there "high performance" radiator compared to the protege 5 radiators.

 

[low_psi]

about twice as thick i think... somewhere around 3". Linux and SuttersSC(sp?) made a thread in the performance section and had pics of the thickness.

Dunno. Hehe. Ill have to see what I have here. that compares to it.


I was lookin at speeds.

Stock I/C at Stock boost went 65 - 106 in 15 secs.

FMIC at 9psi went 65 - 106 in 11 secs.

Whoa 4 sec difference. Keep in midn these arent 100% accurate.

Thanks to Vic (Dr. Sound) he has provided more Pictures for you guys on the FMIC. First Page.]

Heres a dyno graph i typed up.

 

[Jeff@Tri-Point]

Let me know if you guys need any other pics. I will try to get some for you. Just specify the angle.

 

[low_psi]

can you let mazdaspeed usa know about the clearance issues? coming from the company/team that use/used the high performance radiators it may have an impact as the FMIC is for "serious" racers thanks for all the info and constant updates!

 

[speedhawaii]

does it work with the stock airbox?

 

[low_psi]

2 years ago this looked so promising... how much we've learned though!

ps- I miss speedhawaii posting cause he used that pic of my car from when it was 2 days old
