New TMIC Fitted :D (updated with pics)
Got my Newage TMIC fitted today Much better, The thing is massive compaired to my STI v5 one,
I have had to lose my STI Strut as it will not fit over it now,

Where did you get that from mate, and how much? Because I'd prefer that to a FMIC too. Was it straightforward to fit, or did you have to mod some stuff?

I got Zak a MOCOM to fit it, it involves abit of modding to fit, need to make a bracket up for the right side and buy a STI bracket for the left side, also couple of little mods to the clutch fluid resivour and stuff.

Don't think it will fit, the distance between the inlet manifold and the bulkhead is smaller on the pre-facelift cars AFAIK. Think it's a struggle to even get a V5/6 intercooler onto the early (93-96) classics.

i like the look of the TMIC when you open the engine bay, the FMIC are nice but the engine bay looks lost without the TMIC
