I dont know which fmic to get since they all look good. Ive got a sbr-60 trim turbo that im going to run probably at around 19-20 psi . Im going to be running a tial bov with gm maf also maybe someone can point me in the right direction.
 
i would go with the ETS pro race fmic kit. Great fit good quality and amazing customer service from tom and his team. I had a pipe that wasnt fitting right emailed tom and he had a new pipe in the mail to me asap. you cant beat service like that. i can get pics of mine if you would like to see.

size on the pro race core is 25"x10.5"x3.5"

i couldn't agree more, the staff at ets are great people and make a fantastic product.
 
Just ordered the 1g race kit for my 90 from ETS. I was told I should receive it sometime middle of next week. Free shipping too if you order it today. I will let you know how it goes!
 
ets looks good. but if you want to save a bit money, go with ssac 2g kit. have the driverside endtank flipped if you want to use it for a 1g. my friend has made over 400awhp on a mustang dyno with a 35r.
 
I agree with the Pro-Race recommendation! It will give you some headroom to run that turbo to its limit if you ever choose to do so and we can set you up for the Tial/GM UICP without a problem. If you or anyone else has any questions don't hesitate to contact me directly!

I duno if I can say this in these forums but I ordered the punishment 1g uicp and that thing is as soft as JELLO. when I tried to mount the bov to it, the flange bent. when I tried to mount the tb elbow to the tb, the flange on that bent as well! and I'm sure their fmic kit uses the same material piping.

Ive installed the PR fmic kit a couple of times, and for the price its very hard to beat. I had no issues with the bov or TB flange. im not sure how you managed to bend either one. There must be some difference in the flanges used on the UICP kit. The TB flange specifically is nearly half an inch thick on the fmic kit. unlike some other brand kits that use thin steel flanges that seem to warp sometimes.
 
I got the SBR RACE FMIC kit, for my 91 awd. Fitment was a piece of cake, just had to cut the rad. supports with a sawzall and grind them down with a dremel. Very short piping route. I accidently forget to tell them what intake manifold i was running because the throttle body elbow was off by quite a bit.(1g Style) Sent it back and get it reangled and welded correctly for the magnus SMIM
 
I have been doing a lot of homework myself lately on FMICs, and I'm sold on ETS.

Short route, keep the fogs, fitment, etc. etc.

When I do buy it, I think the only thing that would make it perfect would be a stencil of the ETS logo so I can spray paint the it on to the fascia . . . but maybe the box it comes in will have a logo of good size I can just cut out.

I'm not saying any of the other kits fail, but ETS is surely the winner :)

I guess the uicp on the fmic kit is different cus the tb on mine was thin aluminum like u said
