Guys,

I need your opinions, I'm interested in getting my custom FMIC built by ETS in Washington.

But my question is this:

Right now, I don't have the M-Tech kit yet, so I was thinking, should I do the FMIC first, then get the kit, or the other way around?

Reason why I ask is I'm not sure if by getting the M-Tech kit will give more clearance for a bigger FMIC? Or would it not make a difference what kind of bumper I have on the car?

Please chime in

Thanks,

How much are they quoting you for the IC?

[creaminz]

definitely do the mtech first. And CUSTOM made your intercooler to fit perfectly.

Free......

So you guys think that it would make a difference in getting the M-tech bumper first?

Because I think even though it's a custom IC, there's only so much room to work with as far as the space given on the body/frame of the car itself.....

And you bolt the IC to the car, not the bumper.......Does this make sense?

Please chime in

Thanks

f*** if it's free, I'd run it before the M-tech. And if it doesn't fit with M-Tech, you can always sell it later on. Dew it!

get the mtech first, then do the IC. you'll feel retarded if the IC looks sick and doesnt fit the bumper.

+ 1 get the mtech before they do the custom fitment

ETS makes good stuff. check my avatar

bumper and then IC...

did you ever get this done?

[CanadianTSi]

Just get the IC now. If the bumper doesn't fit its not hard to trim it...

[cstmx_ryder]

I got the FMIC done already, I've posted the dyno results in my other posts with and without the FMIC.

The Mtech is going on later this week.......We'll see how that turns out, I'll post some pics after the Mtech installation.

If you're serious about the FMIC, I'd strongly suggest you contact ETS(Extreme Turbo Systems) in La Center, Washington. 360-263-3748. Ask for Michael, as he's in charge of sales, and tell them Leland sent you and that you're interested to know more about the FMIC that was prototyped on my(Leland's) car. I think with that, he'll be able to take care of you from there.

Last I heard they were going to make 4-5 more of these to sell to customers who are willing to give an honest review. I'm not sure how much they're going to charge you for the FMIC, but it won't be free, sorry.

Who knows, they might discount the price for a promo deal to customers who offers their reviews.

IMHO, it's a good grab if they still have some left as their price won't be outrageous. Good gain and a support mod must have!!
