received toyosport fmic the other day and took a few pictures and thought i'll do a guide.
Might come useful when someone gets a toyosport fmic.
Here's my fmic and guide.
Straight away got to work and started fitting it.
First off remove the Fog grills and black plastic strip.
Removed the two screws each side.
Removed the two screws that where behind the black plastic strip on each side.
Next removed the torx screw each side of the arches.
Didn't have much access to get to the guides inside the arches so had to remove wheels and then removed two screws.
Now I was able to remove the bumper.
Decided where to place the intercooler mountings and started drilling.
Looking good so far.
Removed the left headlight which made it easier to get access to the smic and started removing.
There are three srews holding the smic and are very noticeable. Be warned when removing the map sensor the bolts might snapped as mine did and where very rusty.
Starting installing the pipes for the new intercooler, started from the inlet first.
Tightened all bolts.
next started on the other side and for more access it best to remove wheel as had to cut through plastic.
Now the front is all bolted up.
Took abit time to tightened bolts as there's not much room.
Now all pipes are connected and bolted up. Here are some finish pictures.
Now putting the bumper back on was a pain in the arse had to do alot of cutting as the bumper wouldn't fit on but I'm not to bothered as in the future i want to get a better bumper.
Didn't have time to remove the old piping and pancake but will do that soon as.
Don't know much different as I can't tell because my map sensor needs bolting in as I snapped one of the bolts but will order so bolts.
