Default FMIC & TMIC

Can you have both fitted?
And would you need to remap?

Wouldn't make any sense to fit both.

I for one, don't see why you couldn't fit both, not something thats been done to my knowledge, yeh, lag would increase slightly, and you would need a remap, but the cooler air might be of some benefit....

I wanted to keep the TMIC as it has the Ic spray.
If i removed the TMIC and fitted a FMIC, would it still run right with out a remap?
Reason i want is, is so i can acheive a higher speed thn 140 with out blowing the engine up
I was told that without a FMIC anything over 140 the engine wont be breathing enough and not get enought air

Fitting two intercoolers and going 140mph+ without even remapping the car is likely to end in tears IMHO

I'm assuming this is a track or drag car for those speeds, so spend some cash and prepare the vehicle properly.

Yea, my mate has a nice piece of ground we race on!

Even removing the TMIC and fitting just a FMIC with no remap is asking for trouble!

Find an early legacy and retro fit the Charge cooler with a bigger water tank and larger front rad.
