I think it will be very interesting once you get the cooling issues sorted out... should sustain the power a little

OE ECU, on a sort of Revo stage 3 dev code IIRC.
I know they're not happy with it because of the IC...
kinda waiting on me to finish tho..... so they can map it on a properly equipped wagon
well i researched every part i needed for this setup and from the reviews and all the feedback from the guys at vortex i assumed that this IC was a very good bang for buck.
though on the road it is good due to the chilled breeze.
besides i dont really rate the forge IC much TBH, IMO the standard piping is rubbish, and also going over the manifold isnt such a great idea.
this is the reason i went for eurojet over forge.
Yup - just had some setbacks like xmas bill
myk3 - what do you base your guess on that the forge isn't up to it?
I mean, you've not fitted or owned it - and not flow tested the OE pipework? Clearly you took the advice of a moron that told you that the big SMIC would work - when clearly the surface area of air that can actually get to it is minimal.
Just because someone on a forum says it will work, doesn't mean it won't
I think the LC forge unit is only expected to work to 300bhp, but I have a plan for that anyway.

well near all the yanks must be morons then, go speak to them, when i said that i am getting a EJ to replace the SMIC they where shocked, a guy even said to me he would do a streight swap for his FMIC, though he is in the USA so this is not possible.
i seen over 30 posts of praises to the SMIC even those running 300WHP, some with the APR stage 3.
also i dont think the forge unit is worth 7-800 to the 500 i got mine for.

depends really on how you look at it...
Yanks know FA sometimes (not saying I'm any better, but they'll all jump on a bandwagon & claim it all works)
Common sense will tell you that the SMIC design is heavily flawed. I mean it's tucked up out of the way.
EJ looks like a smaller core, but at the end of the day anything will give you a serious improvement.
It's the old addage again though, buy cheap, buy twice (or more) - you pay for quality & support (or not in your case)

NO, it's interesting to read.... but it's frustrating when you make statements about stuff based upon heresay.
each to their own - it could be a masterstroke OR it could bite him in the a##...but trial and error is a healthy part of progress
still needs swinging round to clear, but I might see if the inlet could be modded as that might be better
in my case i had a problem with one of the studs not going place as it needed to swing round a bit more to directlyscrew in to the hole.
i found that i had to grind the manifold at the bottom left and use the supplied allen bolt.
remove a bracket that is held on to the block with 1 allen screw, this holds the speedo wire in position, and the comp housing was hitting this.
smack the block to transmition gasket that stuck out about 3mm with a hammer, as the comp housing was hitting this.
one of these could be stopping the compressor being able to swing round the extra few mm you need.

check http://www.usrallyteam.com/injectors.html, you may have to run a set of the genesis injectors at a different bar. or ask you tuner what ones to get.
