Ebay FMIC piping

**jaredsogn** · 10-23-2008 08:16 PM

Hey guys...just bought the ebay FMIC. I am searching to find the right intercooler piping for it. Can anyone point me to the correct set of pipes on ebay? I am looking for the one used in this writeup: http://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php?t=191938

should have just bought the fmic with the s4 piping and saved yourself some trouble

Yeah, I considered it. But I'm gonna follow Dr. Duct writeup. Looks like it fits pretty decent. I didn't feel like shelling out over twice as much to have the pipes basically "put together" for me. I'll make them work.

did you buy them yet?

i recommend 2" if you want to make it a clean install.

iirc, duct is not running a front bumper support at all. 2.5" is unnec. just think of the intake tract - the fmic piping is not the bottleneck in the system ...

I recommend AWE side mounts. But then I won't be putting a park bench wing on my vehicle, either. Both of these seem to take the car in a direction that is different than a 4 door luxury sport.

I have seen front mounts that are well hidden, as well. I think those just cost less than AWE side mounts. THAT I can relate to. You can't argue against something that does the job within budget, and isn't fugly!

Pink is AWE and red is the EBAY fmic

How much did you spend?

You have to get rid of the bumper support? Wtf. Well to each their own I suppose.

Of course - custom piping...
