Mishimoto fmic w/ short route piping review!

[crash89]

Hey guys, Im keeping my eye out for decent parts to get for my GSX build. Ive got Wiseco piston 8.5:1 cr, Eagle H beams, ARP main and head studs, ACL bearings, BSE, and a Wally 255 fuel pump.. I plan to run E85 with DSMlink and a blow through GM MAF, with either 272s or 280 cams as it wont be a DD. Undecided on turbo and injector size at the moment.. However, that is not my question. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the Mishimoto FMIC?? Yes the one that pops up on the top of the page with the short route piping from Dejon Powerhouse..

Here's another option to think about.. VR Speed Factory - EVO, DSM & WRX Performance Parts - Intercooler - VRSF 2G Front Mount Intercooler Kit : 95 - 99 Eclipse & Talon Turbo

Since I use the VRspeed kit, and am very happy with it, I always suggest it. I clicked on their site to verify that the cost is still around $300, and saw my dyno graph. (I gave them permission to use it when I shared the results with 'em).
I had no idea the graph was on there...cool.

Anyway, I don't work for them, nor am I receiving any kick backs of any kind, I
just want people to know the 2g kit works well. Of course, if you plan on going over 500 whp, I have no idea of the efficiency.

Good luck...

I have the VRspeed intercooler on my spyder already and I agree with you its a great product! I really like it as well. But, I want a little different look with the GSX and aslo wouldnt mind to experiment a little. Just looking for users opinions is all!

I did a write up about it, other than requiring the use of slim fans I love mine.

Spartan, are you slim fans pushing through the radiator? I did plan to do that to my car, 2 ten inch fans push style.. What about trimming?? Where and what did you have to trim?

Thanks,
Tom

Sorry Tom, I didn't check your profile before I started typing

If you have the stock shrouds under the car by the filter housing it will need a tiny bit of love, but i am still running a stock fan, and removed my ac one, my core is cooked off a tad bit ### of that but i will fix it later. I don't have any issues with it after around 12k miles so far. the stock fan needs alot of work though if you go that route like me. i have pics of the install.
