turbolife FMIC questions

[jason a]

ive been doing alot of research on intercoolers, everyone seems to be talkin about the turbolife so i started lookin around. i ran across a turbolife kit for the msp saw some pics and im impressed it looks clean and easy, but it looks like they only make them for group buys. so for those of u that have one what do u think of it, is it good for low boost, and how do i get one?

pm turbolife and see if he has any extras available as the last group buy just ended. its a great kit. i'm running it at stock boost and car feels great

+1
Its the best kit for the money, i dont think you will find anyone that will argue that. Like EZV said they are essential discontinued. Your best bet will be to send off a PM asap. If i counted right he should have MAX 2 left.

PM means private message right this sucks i have no money ill have to save up for one so im probably screwed

 

[special--k]

prolly, because i think that almost all of the good FMIC kits are DC. I know the Perrin and Turbolife are done. You cound ebay something and rig it up, but the performance is not the same. You might have to go SMIC, thats a great option too, if you are not planning to boost the turbo TOO high.

Yes PM means Private Message.

I'm getting ready to offer some (just waiting for final AMM approval) for the MSP.. affordable, and you won't have to remove the bumper support bar.

let me know if that falls through for you. I have a SMIC, pipes and BOV that'll be going up for sale most likely this week. If you are questioning performance I had that intercooler up around 215whp with no problems.

I have the turbolife and like it so far but I haven't really gotten to drive on it with my full setup and being with the cooler weather the stock ecu is a nightmare.

It's on my website right now, don't wanna say much until I'm an AMM, but the website shows pics and details of the kits. There will be two options.. one for relocating the MAF, and the other for keeping the MAF stock location and adding a BOV to the cold pipe. Hoping to have a group buy within the next month or two. Here is a link for the one I sold here: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123729447

He was actually quoting Velocifero when he mentioned the BOV.

hey whats up ur the one who refered me to this site from youtube u were rite this site rules. so u bought the FMIC from altered customs. how much boost u runnin.

 

[Metallic36]

No, looks like he has the Turbolife one. I'm hoping to get the dyno done in a month or two, I won't be able to have a "before" and "after" but it will give a basic idea since I'm wanting to have two runs done, one in low boost, other in higher boost.
