LCR. This FMIC?

[kinder]

when fitting the toyosports fmic and them silicone hoses you posted up how far does this go is it to th echarge pipe and to the tb if so what do you do with the solid palstci pipe with the map sensor in im asking as im thinking of putting one on mine but not sure what to do with the map sensor

 

[cupra_r_ick]

Goes to that plastic pipe so map stays where it is

 

[kinder]

That's ok then dont fancy making up a new pipe for the sensor

You can buy one ready made from Forge.

I have fitted this FMIC to my LCR this weekend, along with a 16 row MOCAL oil cooler.

As i am running an SEM manifold with 75mm R32 TB i decided to go with a custom map pipe, along with 3in (76mm) pipework.

A few brackets need to be made, along with some cutting of the bumper and bumper bar.

Its a real tight fit but it all fits and looks fairly OEM...

Just need to take a couple more pics and I will post up a guide (of sorts) late today

3 people done this set up with great results

 

[ReDBull]

That's the same price as the Toyosport FMIC.

 

[seatcupramad23]

it is indeed , the pipework alone cost £70 and silicone joiners

That's the same price as the Toyosport FMIC.

for 80 quid you only get the fmic core from toyo , with this set up you get the whole lot does have minor cosmetic damage but still in perfect working order cause its been pressure tested i know the guy lol yes i give in its mine , but probbaly be deleted by mods

I'm going to be ordering one of these soon. Is there any advantage buy one with 76mm inlet/outlet and reducers over the 63mm?

 

[ReDBull]

Anyone?

 

[DOLBY]

63 they don't make anymore IIRC

This is the 76mm one do you mean they don't do a 63mm one?

[DOLBY]

I'm sure a few members on here had refunds cos they only do the 76mm one.

I could be wrong tho

[ReDBull]

Ok I'll be buying the 76mm then
How long did delivery take? How are you finding yours?

 

[DOLBY]

Mate it's great, get it bought ASAP. As you may know I had a new turbo back exhaust fitted a couple weeks before the FMIC but I can honestly say it was the intercooler which changed my driving pleasure for the car. Noticed the better pull almost instantly. Hard to explain but the car just felt happier, smoother and more important, felt 30ft/lbs stronger I'm sure of it.
