eBay FMIC, and I guess this is what you would call the long route. I like to think and figure out that I can pretty much see how things would fit, but the loooong pipe at the botton has me stumped. I've read all the FMIC How-to tech articles, but none of them have used this IC. I've been going through all the eBay FMIC posts and same, none are using this IC. Anyone who's installed this one care to chime in as to how that long pipe is going to fit behind the bumper? It's going on a 90 Laser if that matters

I my self have no instaled one of these either. But i have seen pictures and i know that people take out the bumper support to get alot more room. I know that its not safe having that so if you could build your own out of some pipe (somthing smaller so its out of the way).
 
What BOV fits this pipe? Looks like an HKS but it also kinda looks like it's for a TIAL?
 
Yes! Good lookin out bro. Once again, aparently I need practice searching, definetly didn't see that one.
 
I don't want to be that guy, but you are going to be really sorry in an accident if you take your bumber support off. Yes, you will probably be fine, but anything between your block and your intercooler are going to be smashed beyond usability. IE: Turbo, wastegate, IC, headers.

Not worth it. If I were you I would send the kit back saying it didn't say you needed to remove the bumber support or something. Unless of course you only ever drive your car on the track, ever. Even a 5 mph impact is gonna cost you 1000 to fix. Is it worth it?
