Mk4 Fmic

[Ibi Fr]

When will Forge be able to deliver a fmic voor a Ibiza FR 20 VT?

i believe the seat sport one is handy 4 u to install as u only need to change 2 pipes , tho u might need to cut a small section of ur standard bumper , try contacting ANTFR , he has done this mod already

 

[Ibi Fr]

Thanks for your answer i will try to contact him.

What do you think of this mod - 116$ plus pipework sounds cheap. All in all its an interesting read. http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?t=102821&highlight=intercooler

seen that earlier is a big bugger 4 an ibiza , needs custom pipes , but yea judging by the logs it works , at the end of the day if u have money u can have anything fitted

Yeh - I personally like the stealth/OEM look. I've got someone who can do the pipework, its just dimensions and if it fits without cutting.

well ur gonna be fitting a an IC built for a MK% golf onto an ibiza , best bet is to buy the MK$ cupra IC and brackets and get the pipes made in that case , least u know ur IC will be held firm n stable

How much would it cost for a local garage to fit it, as i'm seriously considering picking up one myself?

 

[stoneyfordNI]

il fit it grant no probs , if u want to come to bangor on saturday ul see me in action doing andys , if ur at the meet in dundalk il give u a set of instructions from forge so u can see wat the craic is

 

[grq]

Cheers, just with it now at £515 its a steal, and they are offering the black pipes

 

[stoneyfordNI]

aye its a good deal , u dont much pipe anyhow

 

[Triple D]

Yeah fit it yourself mate, its a piece of pi$$

I've noticed that the cupra fmic is much bigger then the Forge one.

Could someone make a complete list of what parts you need for the conversion from a tdi130 smic to a cupra D fmic?

I have this picture from ETOS but do I need everything from this picture?

The problem with the Seat FMIC is that you need to start cutting the rear of the bumper to get it to fit and I think you do need all those pipes which makes it more expensive than the Forge version. Despite it being smaller I discovered that there's no real performance hit so save your cash and get the Forge unit.

If you need in fact all these parts then it will certainly be much more expensive,I've noticed the price of some parts and I must say that they're very expensive.
Cutting the bumper isn't that much of a problem I think if you do it carefully.

But if there's no difference in result between the cupra and the forge ic then i'll go for the forge.Well,it's not for the near future but someday I will place one.

this is my new cupra FMIC fitted:

Its now revs quicker and looks great behind the cupra bumper.

 

[Ant FR]

that look familiar, good to see it all went on, told ya it was easy once you had the bumper off

 

[ibiza_fr_james]

It was easier then i thought it would be to fit. one of the hardest parts was fixing the new bumper over it.

How do the tubes fit at the standard tubes?Arent't the standard ones with clips and the cupra ones with bands?
