Message	It's not JUST the flow rate. It is the FMIC's ability to cool the air and avoid heat soak. Yeah there is a pressure drop but when compared to the inlet temperature how much is the difference. That is what I would like to see. I just had an FMIC installed because I got a great deal(only$200 more than Stillen IC's) and I would like to think it was worthwhile.
Follow Ups	Has anyone dynoed or plan on dynoing with the FMIC - MikeH(Twin GT35BB Incon Z) 10:52:38 06/04/03 Wouldn't it be better to just have them flowtested? - MugenRacer 11:04:38 06/04/03 yep. - aliaZ 11:17:56 06/04/03 Well... - sparkie 14:04:38 06/04/03 Re: Well... - aliaZ 14:58:40 06/04/03 True - sparkie 15:43:34 06/04/03 The dyno will be the final judge. You can measure pressure - MikeH(Twin GT35BB Incon Z) 11:20:12 06/04/03 sure, but a flowbench would be much easier - aliaZ 12:39:37 06/04/03 doe a flow bench use pressure as well?

How come BPU Supras with a FMIC - George(boost-solutions.com) 11:16:14 06/04/03 The stock turbo is can't flow enough cfm to fill - MikeH(Twin GT35BB Incon Z) 11:18:16 06/04/03 Or maybe is there Turbo design. - ZBlacktt 11:44:12 06/04/03 Um. They have bigger turbos. Our stockers are too small>> - Kenny (9 psi) 13:45:07 06/04/03 Thought I said that, but yea :) (n/m) - ZBlacktt 14:06:27 06/04/03 Are you sure they aren't cranking up the boost? - Marshall 12:32:57 06/04/03 If they gain horsepower like that, it's for a different - SeedyROM 15:39:28 06/04/03 I did but also went with different exhaust at the same time - aspendog 14:03:46 06/04/03 If someone can measure the pressure drop... - sparkie 14:09:58 06/04/03
