    FMIC Install

    Well my car was at the shop for 2 days, to get the Front Mount Intercooler Installed and the GReddy Turbo Timer.. Honestly I couldn't be happier. The welds on the intercooler are flawless, the end tanks were all hand welded same with all the intercooler piping. The welds are perfect definitely. Its perfect jobs like this that keep me going back to him.

    To kill all the rumors this intercooler doesn't require me to re tune the car. It holds boost better then the stock top mount. Mainly because, its cools the air and can hold the timing, so the boost doesn't fluctuate. The car hits full boost (21 PSI) by 3000 rpms and hold its perfect. Before it would hit full boost at 3000 rpms and would drop to 19 by 4000 rpms the fluctuate back and forth then taper down to 16 PSI











    Then I had him install the turbo timer which was an awesome job and am a huge fan of. Flush install..

                      Not if someone offers him more then 90 like me at sullys last night! But you're lucky I told him I was kdding, cause I want a front mount. He wanted to bolt it up in the parking lot. ha

                          thank you for all the replys, I think i will have him do water/meth when i want more power.. lets see what the VF39 can net me and if I need to go bigger I will. But as for now I am happy with it the way it sits.

                            Bigger turbo = More efficient @ medium-high boost = Cooler intake charge = Less detonation w/o need for meth.
