This is with the standard LC/FR manifold and a intercooler with a pipe either side

You don't need the manifold on the other side to do it :)

i believe it can be fitted but use also need the fuel rail as well.
there are 2 ways of fitting a FMIC one brings the hot pie over the top of the engine, the other takes it off the pancake pipe. downside is the pipe work runs from the outlet of the FMIC across the back ofthe intercooler then to the TB

I don't understand how this would fit? :confused:
sorry dont think i explained it right. some kits have the pipework from the turbo down the same side as the standard SMIC in the passengers wing, this obviously does away with the SMIC itself and is connected to the FMIC - on the LHS as looking towards the car - the RHS or the core doubles back on itself behind the FMIC to connect to the throttle body.
