Harvey, whats the highest bhp people have run on the hybrid FMIC?

 

Tone Loc

the tmic at 100mph doesnt get enough air through it,ive got at charge temp guage on mine m8 and all is well at 80/90 but when u go over this you should see the temp go up thats why alot of engines go bang at 100mhp+


yes tmic are good for 340bhp and so on, its the temp you have to think about at 125mph my charge temp was reading 60/65 degrees,then i slowed down to 70/80 and it can down to a nice 15/20 degrees

they have front entry inlet manifold so the pipes are alot shorter and they dont go over that dam turbo lol

money well if harvey is running 1 its 585bhp ish(dam swine lol)

you could say why dont wrc cars have tmic and thay only run 300bhp

 

Harvey!!

Cant we make this groupbuy in March or in early April??

Cause I want the hybrid kit!!

I think we can get atleast 10-15 people to sign up right away!!

Cheers

How about an uprated TMIC - How does this compare cost wise ?

I'm a bit concerned on the Lag factor of a FMIC... (only a TD04)

nothing like hijacking a thread is there

mark read my last post m8 tmic are cr4p m8 imho but each to there own they just get to dam hot

I hope your doing those 125mph+ speeds on the track. However not everybody does track days and so these speeds should not be a problem. As you say your temps are very good at 70/80... so for a road car at 300bhp the FMIC would not be of great benefit . Remember that a charge temp of 40degC is considered a good temp to aim for.

Deferent story for 350bhp... i'd say FMIC is a definate.

As for the WRC cars not using carbon pipes i think you'll find it's for a different reason than having a reversed inlet manifold.

Harvey is running his Hybrid on his early wagon, not the STi 6.. this has an APS.

just my 2p for what its worth peeps. while there may be cheaper, more cost effective options out there (and i know of one cheaper than the hybrid), i think it a little unfair to hijack a thread in order to gain or tempt away potential buyers.

simply start a thread of your own and leave this one well alone. people will make their own enquiries and decide for themselves what product they want and how much they are prepared to pay. my FMIC is a 2nd hand APS from a trusted source, which I chose over a much cheaper US alternative (which may actually be a decent buy). but i know the APS is a quality piece of kit and the hours that went into testing and honing are reflected in the cost.

it sounds as though Simon's supplier has thought through the application of an FMIC in much detail in order to put together a quality and beneficial package and save any potential customers too much hassle or headache over which to buy. this for me demonstrates a commitment to customer service and being UK based, you know any issues (should there be any) are much easier to resolve.

this just might be something worth considering when thinking about saving a couple of hundred quid versus any potential issues or heartache when importing products. that said, exhange rates are good and all options have to be considered of course, but the main point is... let this thread run its course naturally rather than infringe on the efforts others to lessen your own.

the other thing to consider is SUMMER,how many people come on scoobynet and say my car feels slow in the summer when running tmic

as for the speeds, it was on track m8 2mins from my house and has 3 lanes lol

 

list so far

1)scooby-si 350bhp
2)scooby-k 350bhp
3)5 Type R 350bhp
4) sti...v4...350bhp

 

 

Sorry for appearing to hijack - I was actually thinking that the supplier might consider making an improved TMIC too.....

Mark

 

He isnt using the Hybrid FMIC mate, i think on his own wagon thats hitting 500+bhp its the APS FMIC

The hybrid fmic is used on his other wagon i think

 

mark e-mail pete he might do 1 for u m8

 

MONEY,S Right Harvey runs a APS on his STI and the hybrid on his WRX >> both wagons , cheers Alan.

 

LOL @ Si . Suprised these days you can find a 3 lane track that hasn't ground to a halt..... sat on one the other day at 9.00 p.m going nowhere fast .

Tony.

 

2am in the mornings best m8
