Quick front mount help!!

[92dsmgst]

about to pick up a front mount on a reallyyyyy good deal(evo3 mani and a 2g maf). just worried about fitment, its 28x12x3....I noticed slowboys is the same demensions just thicker, but im concerned because the inlet and outlets face left and right, not inward like the FMIC kits do for dsm's. This is a universal kit, brand new. just wandering if its worth the trade, and how my fitment will be. thanks!!!

it will fit but will be harder to do the short route piping i have a similar one on mine

That's a lot of pipe! Seriously...have you thought about finding a way to shorten it so it's not as long as the Greddy FMIC pipe route? Perhaps moving the hot side pipe behind the radiator to the turbo.

already shorter did the longer pipe short route that was an older pic just thew it on to drive the car

Well if you're wondering if the trade is a good one, we'd have to know what you are trading! If you're say trading a mint 1967 Corvette then no, if you're trading a 14b, then yes. As far as the install goes, you'll have to enlarge the hole on the driver's side to let the pipe fit through for a short route and you'll probably lose your fog/driving lights. I'm not a fan of universal FMIC's but if it's all you can afford and you need it right now, then I guess they're okay.

haha, yeah, its a trade for an evo3 exhaust mani and a 2g maf. traded 3 knock off 17's and some 2gA talon tail lights for the mani, and i have a maf.

thats a waste of piping in steand of having the 90 elbow bo up why not go back towards the motor then another 90 to go towards the turbo and be done with it ?
