This arrived today and I must say,the FMIC does look very good. Have to say though,the thought of bolting a million pipes together and trying to fit it behind the bumper is frightening. Anybody know if there is an idiots guide to fitting this bit of kit Thanks, Paul

Back on topic Just checked the kit out and the FMIC outlets are 3 inch and all the silicon hoses steel pipework supplied are 2.5 inch. This does not sound right to me.......there is no way any of the hoses will fit over the FMIC outlets. Help. Paul

I have made the bracket today and plan on fitting the FMIC without pipework over the weekend (have 2 reducers missing). If it is ok,I will put up drawings with dimensions of the bracket and maybe later a "how to do". See how it goes. Paul

Here is the bracket I made today in work (in my spare time ;)). If it fits,I will post dimensions.....which I could have done with before taking the grill off to measure up but there you go.......lol. The spray is a no no on mild steel and maybe better off with thicker stuff from a pot. Paul

Leon,if you had put the dimensions of the bracket up,I would not have had to take my grill off to measure up myself......you bad boy I will get some proper paint tomorrow but the engineering is spot on mate. Excellent idea BTW mate. Paul

yes it is good, a little on the heavy side though. So how did you route your pipe work?

Not done it yet mate. Made the bracket out of 25mmx6mm flat. I am still waiting for the 2 reducers they forgot to put in the kit so I will just fit the FMIC and cut the bumper and refit ready. I will then put it on ramps and sort it out then......I will be roughing up the ends of the pipes with a file though. When I did the same with my mr2 turbo,the pipes blew off and had to get the AA out......that WILL not be happening again matey. Paul Paul

do not take it under the radiator support like many people have unless you don't go over speed bumps

I did do a post bout fitting one. because i wanted some help when i was fitting mine but was takeing off lol. anyway.. i done what leon 1 said and put my pipe under the radiator support not the best place to put because i have got speed bumps down my road so have to go over them a bit slow. but happy with the kit.
