Message	:The Apollo's FMIC has the same size as most other Z's FMIC, 24"x12"x3". Actually, the core size for each turbo is 24"x6"x3", which flows 156 cfm per bell's chart. Most medium sized turbos like the GT2530 and PE1420 flow close to 500 cfm each. Corky Bell said that his charts are rated at 1.0/1.5 psi drop. If this is the case, I could see there being probably 4 or 5 psi pressure drop at maximum flow. While I'm sure its possible that this FMIC would support 750 HP...there is absolutely no way in hell it can support that power level at only 1.5 psi pressure drop. :The real question should be how much pressure drop when the core flows...lets say 1200cfm? I agree. A 600 HP Z needs roughly 900 cfm of total flow. I'd like to see the pressure drop across the FMIC at this level. I bet it isn't 1.5 psi
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? (n/m) - MikeH(Twin GT35BB Incon Z) 12:57:57 06/04/03 Re: Wouldn't it be better to just have them flowtested? - Jeff_94 14:39:51 06/04/03 I do not get one thing. 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
