FMIC Questions.

I have an HKS BOV venting to atmosphere. Is that compatible with Greddy's 24V FMIC?

I know what most of you are thinking; "Naughty, naughty, Mr. Atmosphere." but I have the Autronic SM2 standalone so it works perfectly.

The Greddy pipes come flanged for Greddy bov (who would've thought ) so you would have to have someone take off the flange and weld the HKS one on.

Why are you going with a Greddy 24V intercooler when there are a lot better ones (and a lot cheaper ones) out there?

So I can get the Greddy stencil. Thats a joke.

I was planning on getting the ETS Pro Race FMIC but the shop I go to suggested the Greddy would be a better choice. They deal with them alot (which makes it no wonder why he's trying to push them on me, I'll admit) and said the Greddy has an exremely good flow and just typically a clean install. He also said there is no bumper support cutting involved.

I don't know...I'm still open to suggestions. Seems like both ETS and Greddy get good reviews.

ETS ftw BY FAR! Do some research and you'll find out why the ETS fmic's are far superior to the Greddy.

Well, I'll tell you right now, most people on here love ETS and dislike Greddy. The most popular FMIC on here though is the SSAC.

Here's a link that people talk about ETS FMIC - http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=268836&highlight=ETS+FMIC

And, the SSAC 'Bible' thread - http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=237530&highlight=ebay+fmic

Ok well I think now I'm leaning towards the ETS kit again.

I'm just worried about having to cut a bunch of stuff. Anyone have any experience with the install?

 

[TearsForTalon]

Oh...and wtf does ftw mean?

FTW = For The Win

As for other people having it installed, send a PM to Chuck 3 (he posted on your other thread -http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=272371&highlight=ETS+FMIC) and ask him.

Also, after a quick search through the gallery, here are 2 pictures of ETS FMIC's installed (you could ask them as well).

Oh haha now this entire post makes much more sense.

Thanks, man.

Everything I've read about the ETS systems says that they are great and require no major modifications to fit them on. Now, if you went with the ssac kit, then you'll be hacking quite a bunch of stuff up. But it sounds like you've got a few bucks, so go with the ETS kit if you can afford it. You can also contact ETS directly and I'm sure they can help you out with any questions you might have about their kit.

Thanks again. ETS it is. I'll be taking a bunch of photos of the install so nobody else has this issue.

Its not that I have lots of money...its just that this is the time for me to start buying all of my mods from the states cause our dollar is worth more than theirs (yours) is right now.

That ETS FMIC is $919.00 US but I'm only paying $887.61 CAN.

Same with the Shep stage 4 tranny I recently ordered.
