How To: Ebay FMIC

[hornsfan10609]

I was able to bend it too and relocate it behind the bar that runs in front of the radiator.

I did that, but it crosses my oath where the hotside pipe needs to come through the rad support

I was able to just run the hot pipe with out really bending them

 

[Nevermore]

so I got the EBAY kit but there is no piping with a connector for the aftermarket bov...what do I do about this? do I take it to a shop and have them modify it to be able to connect it?

sorry im a turbo newb...

you can buy the pipe for about 10 - 15 on ebay example.

I have an intercooler with 2.25 Inlet and outlet.. My piping is 2.5. Would I need a reducer coupler or can the 2.5 coupler be clamped down?

 

[o0n8]

need a reducer

I was able to tweak it up so the pipe could fit under it, I do recall having to remove a bolt higher up on the passenger side of the engine compartment that secures those PS cooler lines down.

i somehow managed to run my fmic without cutting the radiator support, im still using stck fans, still have my windshield washer fluid res and fit my p5 fogs without modification to the bumper at all

Really? I wanna see some pictures of this, cause I had to cut my bumper a little and cut an opening left of the radiator to route my hot side

U lie like a rug! Pics or it didn't happen! So u gonna race the wagon when I come up?

I had to cut some metal for the hotside and coldside, but didn't have to cut the bumper or crash support at all on my setup. Still have my windshield washer res, went with slim fans though.

 

[Preferio]

I had to slightly trim on my hot side, trim the bumper (the actual bumper, not the bumper cover) and that was it. I've got everything still intact. Well, with the exception of no A/C condenser fan as of right now. I just removed it because the compressor clutch went out, so no A/C anyway. Damn that reminds me I've got to get a new compressor soon.

Never posted pics of my setup, but 2088msp can attest for how i was able to run stock fans, fogs and not cut the rad support

 

[Mustard97]

Pretty much finished installing the intercooler kit, car runs, no leaks etc, tomorow will trim my bumper cover to fit.
I didn't cut a single piece of metal to make it fit so far, lost my windshield washers for the time being, planning to use remote reservoir and separate pump later.
and yes I am getting a new air filter.....

I got my Intercooler monted was able to run all the pipes, but the hot pipe was an issue . we made a cut out to fit the pipe through, but still wasnt able to get it to work, just seemed a little tight. i just ordered some more 90 degree and 45 degree coupler elbows hoping that will help since the original kit only came with 2.... any sugestions ...?
