Front mount intercooler/intake

[fabian]

hey all. I've been thinking and pondering for the past couple of months about an idea, but I was never wanting to spend the money on it. I've seen those front mount air intakes for the hondas, so I bought an actual FMIC and a "y" pipe for my intake piping. So now all I have to do is shave my front bumper and get the piping bent to fit into one side of the "y" pipe and put a breather on the other side of the "y" pipe. Just wondering if anyone has any predictions as to id it will work or not?

I dont get it. Are you trying to install FMIC on N/A motor? Why? Its not F/I. You would just create longer way to delay the air to travel to the Intake Manifold.

your car will be slower, the fmic will become a restrictive path

I still havent been able to get someone to bend the piping for me yet. But Ive been out of town for two weeks, will be home tomorrow night. I guess if anyone's been lookin for a front mount I'll try and sell it to them...if I dont like the result of it that is
