Allright I have the MAM Tubular Manifold and a T3/T04E garrett turbo. I know they fit together well (They have been sitting in my garage for 6 months)!! I already have a FMIC but honestly I am too lazy to modify my pipes to fit the lower turbo position (I had a MPI log manifold). After searching for awhile I found the discontinued Perrin FMIC kit for sale still new.

-Now my question, Will everything fit without modification? (Besides Spal Fans) Pretty much does the MAM tubular manifold sit the same as the stock MSP manifold?
-A question for Perrin owners: Where is the MAF location on this kit and can I easly relocate it if it is in the intake?
-Question 2 for Perrin owners: Is the kit set-up for relocation or a BOV since I want to still run my Turbo XS RFL BOV.

Thats abt it right now, I searched but everything on the MAM manifold and Perrin FMIC are over 2 years old and are mostly F/S threads!

First, the MAM MSP manifold won't work with that turbo. Hopefully you are talking about a thumper manifold, as the MSP version has a T2 series turbine flange.

Second, both of those manifolds should fit just fine with the Perrin.

MAF relocation is easy no matter what IC kit you use. Just have to hack up the pipe where you want teh MAF to sit and then have the ends of the cut pipes bead-rolled.

As for the BOV, the Perrin kit came set up to run a BPV, but you can cap that off easily and put your RFL flange wherever you want it.

Hope that helps some.

No i have the MAM manifold with the T3 flange, I just wanted to make sure the Perrin kit would fit b4 i spend 1100 on it!! I hacked up my last kit for the maf relocation so I was not really worried abt that. I just wanted to be sure I could weld on my BOV flange

Check out turbolife's FMIC... he is making a Perrin knock-off and it will be about half that price.
