Ok i'm thinking about doing a FMIC setup pretty soon just because my side mount is a little smashed on one side from an accident the previous owner got in, it took out about 2 sections of ic, suprized if there isnt a boost leak LOL havent check yet though. Anyways i was just wondering what u would have to do to do a FMIC setup with my car as it is now? i mean the front bumper has the thing in the middle so i would have to cut that out but then the bottom would be all wobbily, when ppl normally do FMIC setups do they get a low profile new front bumper? and also like the debres shield for the radiator is all falling apart and its really ugly. I'll get s'more pictures tommorrow for u guys so u can see what i'm talking about, but for now any suggestions?

Thx
 
People get FMIC's on stock bumpers all the time. Especially here, every other person has done it. I have.

1. If your stock side mount i/c has been crashed it probably is leaking a little but you will never know unless you actually leak test it.

2. To install a FMIC, you will need to take your front splah guard out, cut your bumper guard[ I did it with a normal saber saw ] or take it out completely; you will also need to check which FMIC you get. Some FMIC's require cutting of your frame or taking out fog lights. If you use the search tool you will find out info on the FMIC you are looking at.

E.I. If you are thinking about getting the Big Greddy FMIC 24 row kit, type into the search at the top "big greddy fmic fitment" or something.. good luck
