wagner no longer selling their fmic??

i didnt realize ion was only that much-- a lot lower than i thoguth it was...

[FSDET]

i dont know about the wagner kit PM all the info so that i can add it.

[low_psi]

i didnt realize ion was only that much-- a lot lower than i thoguth it was...I need to talk to them about shipping charges cause Leonardo said he got his for $1170 shipped, I really hope that wasn't at the $925+shipping price though. I assume it wasn't though.

[FSDET]

it might have been customs tax

[DSMConvert]

hmm i was under the impression that the CS one would NOT work with hardpipes....When talking with turbohoses they had said it was a little thicker and wouldnt work with the hardpipe angles...I have not tested this myself so I cant confirm, this is just want I had been informed of...

[mspeedpro]

i love the size of the ion fmic

[FSDET]

i love the size of the ion fmic
u gota be informative then that man. try telling us the core size,install times, problems with the install, diffrence in tracktimes-whp.

[SpicyMSP]

yea, and then we would have a million more informative stickied threads, that no one reads and posts questions to anyway...

[evolv]

Here's a new one? or maybe an old one that didn't make the list. Just found it after a search for "mazdaspeed" on yahoo stores.

[jurgs01]

That's a tube and fin (not bar and plate) intercooler. The bar and plate is better.

[Dr.Sound]

just want to say that i have a Circuit Sport SMIC (bar and plate) and it kicks ass!
best single mod after downpipe.
highly recommend.

[kazson]

we not updating anymore ? >.<

[FSDET]

im waiting for my MAM fmic i will update this thread and post pix once i get it

[akeem1003]

Which turbo upgrade would be best for my MSP?

[Lil Freek]

the Perrin core is HUGE... but for ease.. either the hiboost or mam would do whatever you need :)

[xtrememps]

Isn't Ion's based off another company's? I can't seem to find it right now but it's the same design and from a more "reputable" company.

[xtrememps]

Yay! I found it. I know this is essentially the same as Ion's but as stated is from a supposedly more "reputable" company: http://www.kineticmotorsport.com/catalog/kinetic-motorsportion-performance-mazda-protege-mazdaspeed-fmic-p-66.html?osCsid=54e946805545628155d20851398448fd

[terbow]

i think kinetic makes ions IC's, look at the title.

[PharmacyMSP]

If you look back at Turbo Mags install of Ion's FMIC, you'll notice the "k" for Kinetic on the silicone couplings. They have been in connection since Jan '04.

The EXTREME-IMPORTS FMIC is a horrible kit. Found at www.extremeimports.net
The kit is not the same as pictured. It comes w/13 Piece of SH** aluminum pipes (not the five pictured). The welding on the ic is crap. I know middle schoolers that can weld better. Long story short--- When it comes to an FMIC or SMIC, you definitely get what you pay for. If you can't afford quality, keep saving.

[MSP2NV]

I clicked on the link to protegegarage to look up the BEGI FMIC, and i can't find it anywhere on there site. Anyone know of anywhere else to find it?

[FSDET]

call them. i think they still have em.

[Captain KRM P5]

call them. i think they still have em.

we have some now in very limited supply. pm me if seriously interested only

[maximumimpact]

I just received my Perrin FMIC yesterday. I paid 1199.99 for it, plus shipping. I was charged only 30 bucks for shipping though.....Not sure if it's because I bought their exhaust too, but that's what I experienced.

[FSDET]

nice .. let us know how the install goes and how do u like the fmic

[Tito1]

ARRRG...too many choices. I was set on a turbohoses SMIC causeI don't plan on boosting over 10psi. But for the sam $$$ I can have an FMIC, which look so sweet.

Is there any functional differences if boosting 10 and under? Any advantage to SMIC over FMIC?

[apocman]

That really needs to be answered with a breakdown of data to show the good and the bad for all the different types of intercoolers, pipes, BOV's & BPV's etc, along with what are you going to do with the engine.

But I think it's safe to say you should be pleased with all the different intercoolers offered by the vendors on here. Since you going to stay at 10psi then I would go with the cheapest one which has the least amount of work to be done.

[Titanium-99]

I rather like the FMIC I got with HKS SSQV BOV for $1020.00 installed check out the pics here. http://www.msprotege.com/forum/showthread.php?t=106614

[apocman]

I rather like the FMIC I got with HKS SSQV BOV for $1020.00 installed check out the pics here. http://www.msprotege.com/forum/showthread.php?t=106614

but is he willing to cut into his car to install or will he have to pay somebody to install it. Depending on the answer that may not end up costing him a $1020, but rather a $1020 + shipping and then paying somebody to install it.

[Tito1]

Ti-99-that is one sweet IC. It HUGE...I like it. But apocman has touched on one of my parameters...no cutting. I have some good help for an install, but for some reasoon cutting into my baby doesn't sound like the best solution.

THe BEGI looks sweet, as does the Perrin. I think I'll probably be all good either way, but with so many choices its that much harder. Once I think I know what I want...here comes another product.

I live really close to turbohoses, so that seem like a big advantage for their SMIC. It just doesn't have the 'bling' factor. Of course with the way I drive that's likely a good thing.

[apocman]

That's a tube and fin (not bar and plate) intercooler. The bar and plate is better.

Don't take this the wrong way Jurgs, but that is a misleading blanket statement. Fin & Tube and Bar & Plate both have their advantages and disadvantages.

We currently have this debate going on in another thread. MAM is working on a sceintificly proven backed data rebuttle, to show why ytou would go with one versus the other.

you have to take in everything about the MSP and what he is going to do to it and when end results he will want. Then take said proven data do an analysis and then make a best suggestion.

http://www.msprotege.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1730593#post1730593

[Titanium-99]

you will have to do some cutting with just about any FMIC you install especialy the Perrin! SMIC are great because they are fairly easy to install dont require any cutting and normaly come with niftly looking little hard pipes but they will heat soak after about 45 mins of driving which means you loose power. The stock SMIC heat soak's after about 15 mins. of driving which just blows donky nuts. Now FMIC are great because they BLING BLING they are super effeciant and normaly wont ever heat soak due to there location on your car, so you can run all day and not loose power. They are a bitch to install almost always require some cutting or modding of the area behinde your bumper and routing piping is just never fun in tight spaces. I suggest you go with your gut and get what you like and take all this information they way you want. HP gains on a SMIC and FMIC are about the same one is just a little more effeciant than the other.

[ChopstickHero]

^^^
good reply.

I am planning on going turbohoses SMIC in a few months. i have the hardpipes sitting in my room right now, waiting for the install. Reason why i'm going this route: car can be returned to normal b/c i don't have to cut anything, alot easier install, about the same gains, improvement over stock shitty smic, having good daily driveability is very important to me, and the stealth look... hehe... :)

[Titanium-99]

If you are getting a SMIC then I suggest that you go to http://protegegarage.com/ and purchase a Cryo2 SMIC chiller it will help emensly with heat soak on that particular set up.

[Tito1]

If you are getting a SMIC then I suggest that you go to www.protegegagrage.com (http://www.protegegagrage.com/) and purchase a Cryo2 SMIC chiller it will help emensly with heat soak on that particular set up.

Link no worky

Ti99-thanks for he explanation. I'll likely go for a SMIC due to ease of installation and stealth factor. Although the bling is sweet.

Are there any other SMIC's for the MSP besides Turbohoses and Custom MSP's? I need to take another look at Custom MSP's (if there are any more). I think all fitment issues (if we want to call them that) have been worked out. I know function wasn't being compromised so maybe no changes were made to that design.

Could I just buy a intercooler of that size, and hardpipe up to that??

[Dr.Sound]

.............SMIC...........will heat soak after about 45 mins of driving which means you loose power.

not true,
Turbo Hoses SMIC and CustomMSP SMIC do not heatsoak if u run boost 9 and below.



Now FMIC are great because they BLING BLING they are super effeciant and normaly wont ever heat soak due to there location on your car, so you can run all day and not loose power.
not true again.
FMIC require more volume for the turbo to fill (especially our t25).
longer spoolup, less bottom end power.
unless u up the boost after installing FMIC u will loose power.

at 9 psi SMIC feel better than FMIC.
car has power throughout the RPM band.
now at 14 psi that's another story.

[Tito1]

Uh oh, here's some conflict. I think we can all agree about the 'bling' factor.


But simply for performance if not boosting over 10psi it seems smic is the way to go.

"Turbo-hoses, Why so Expensive?"

[ChopstickHero]

Uh oh, here's some conflict. I think we can all agree about the 'bling' factor.


But simply for performance if not boosting over 10psi it seems smic is the way to go.

"Turbo-hoses, Why so Expensive?"


yeah, expensive stuff, but it's quality stuff. turbohoses hardpipes are nice quality, silicone connectors and clamps are top quality too. haven't ordered the smic, but i will soon and i'm sure it's top notch.

[Tito1]

We will need to add Corksports FMIC once it is released. And check out the preorder special price....FMIC basically for the price of Turbohoses SMIC.

Corksport seems to make quality products as well. The only real disadvantage to the Corksport unit is that it will require some cutting. Oh well, but bump for a great price.

[MyOrangeToy]

you guys sure about the price for the ION FMIC? On their website its still 1300US

[Notorious_V.I.C]

Yea, I was browsing and also saw, Wagner Motorsports FMIC, might want to add that when you add the corksport FMIC

[MoJoeTCM]

just curious...someone settle the debate for me....if you plan to keep stock boost with a smic and 3 inch turbo back will this be a good stock set up? I just bought the custom smic and perrin exhaust...the only mods from here will be dsm and intake mani.....any advice? I just want a good solid 190-200 whp....

[FSDET]

yup the SMIC is perfect for that.. well other then the fact that FMICs look sexy

[Notorious_V.I.C]

When's CorkSport's FMIC being released?
I want to compare it to my one and only FMIC of Choice right now
BEGi FMIC before I buy it.

[540James]

If you are getting a SMIC then I suggest that you go to http://protegegarage.com/ and purchase a Cryo2 SMIC chiller it will help emensly with heat soak on that particular set up.

Okay, after extensive searching of the site, I must know of this Cryo2 SMIC chiller that you speak of. I can't find it...

[PlatinumMSP]

theres a couple things that are very important and havnt been mentioned:

1. Which FMIC/SMIC produces the most power rank in order
2. Which FMIC/SMIC cools down the air the most, rank in order
3. Dyno graphs of the before and after effects
4. Does size of the intercooler really make a difference besides looks?

[onequickmsp]

Well, I don't know if this will help you but I have the CustomMSP SMIC installed on my car and it's helped out greatly. I found it to be a great buy. If I had to buy a FMIC, I would go with the MAM FMIC or the Hiboost FMIC. From what I understand, both those FMIC's are a great kit for your money. If you want a reliable name, then go with the Perrin FMIC. It all comes down to what, do you want to do to your car. Internals changed = FMIC, Basic bolt-ons = SMIC It's all up to you. Just my $0.02

[slowmotionmsp]

Hi, can anyone help me understand a concern i have about the perrin intercooler, please? i was told that the support beams that help make the car's bumper stronger in case of an accident has to be removed and cannot be reused when installing the perrin intercooler. Perrin provides a their own support beam, but, this isn't going to be as strong as the OEM support beam as it has not been tested like the OEM has.

My question is, many people say that Perrin is the best quality intercooler to go with, but should i be concerned about the safety issue about not having the OEM support beams for the bumper?

If so, what is the next option for a FMIC that works well and covers the safety issue as well? by the way, i don't race my car, just like to have the car breath comfortable so i can enjoy the little extra for the daily driving.

Anyone, let me know, please! thanks!!

dude your over the safety issue, you'll be driving with an extra bumper (your fmic) haha

[Dr.Sound]

......i don't race my car, just like to have the car breath comfortable so i can enjoy the little extra for the daily driving.
in that case SMIC will suit you just fine.
if all u do is daily driving without pushing a lot of power then SMIC is the best choice.
support beam is untouched, and you dont loose spoolup time ;)

[mazdaspeedwerx]

I am going to buy a fmic soon and it's between mam's perrin and highboost. it seems that perrng has the largest core, but for some reason I think I remember reading somwhere that a larger core can hurt the performance. I know it's not that much larger but just want to know. I am also planning on running a larger turbo set up for my msp also. maybe a t-28 rs

[PlatinumMSP]

if your boosting over 10 psi, get the perrin... your going to need it especially if your getting a bigger turbo.... dont forget to get injectors and ems too while your at it...

[mazdaspeedwerx]

ems is next on my hit list. I think I am going to get microtech

[PlatinumMSP]

ems is next on my hit list. I think I am going to get microtech

very nice my friend, have fun

[mazdaspeedwerx]

I installed the perrin kit and it is very nice.I was a little worried about the size of the core being too large. I thought that I wouldnt pick up any time at the track but I ran a 14.4 to my 14.7 before. I think I can do better next time.

[slowmotionmsp]

do you work on your car yourself? or, do you have a place in cincy you go to for performance works?

Pictures would make a world of difference within this thread. Would it be possible to get some of you guys to post pictures and name the brand kit you used.

[djarkitek]

both the Mental Addiction Motorsports and Ion FMIC kits are not sold anymore here...or anywhere from what i've seen and researched. So those might need to be taken off.

[volcombro16]

you can still by the ion kits but they changed company name to kenitic motorsport http://www.kineticmotorsport.com/products/Kinetic_Motorsport_iON_Performance_Mazda_Protege_M azdaspeed_FMIC_Kit-38-0.html

[dannyboy17]

Well yeah, after having the intercooler laying around for a while I finally decided to install it. I gathered a few friends to help me get it on the car and after a few hours of work we finally did it.

The first three pics show where I drilled the holes on the bumper support / crash bar. It also had a middle section that had to be drilled. Then after that I just unbolted the crash bar and drilled holes from the bottom also. I had to get 5'' long screw from home depot to make sure I could go all the way thru to make sure the intercooler stayed in place. After a lot of drilling, and a few drill bits later this is what I got.



http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d14/cold_raven/fmic01.jpg

http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d14/cold_raven/fmic02.jpg

http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d14/cold_raven/fmic03.jpg



This one shows the intercooler already bolted. I cut off a little bit off one of the extra couplers I have to make sure the bolts dont rattle. (metal + metal = annoying noise)


http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d14/cold_raven/fmic04.jpg


Here's how the intercooler looked after it was bolted to the bar.


http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d14/cold_raven/fmic05.jpg


Then I still didnt feel like it was going to stay in place and with all the vibration from daily driving the car, I knew I needed something else to make sure it wasnt gonna fall on the street while driving so I bought a few long zip tides and tied them around the fmic.


http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d14/cold_raven/fmic06.jpg


After this all I had to do was put the bumper together since we were all tired and didnt feel like doing the piping on the same day, but probably this week the hard pipes, turbo xs bov and relocated MAF will be done.

Heres the last picture of how it looks with the bumper on.

http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d14/cold_raven/fmic07.jpg


PS: Yes, I painted the intercooler black since I'm going for that sleeper look, but I still need to get the mesh that goes there to make it even harder to spot.

Suggestions are welcome :)

[MsP155]

hahaha is that the power adder cone filter from pepboys? lol i got that too, i used to have that before i got the injen CAI...i even go the extension that goes where that hole is and got some aluminum flexi pipes and put it in the passengers side front air dam...ahhh good times!

[khaosman]

dannyboy that looks great. I really like the sleeper look, what did you paint it with?

Although this Corksport IC I just got is so sexy, I'm not sure I want to paint it

[dannyboy17]

I went to home depot and bought some bbq / grill paint. I tried looking for radiator paint at an autopart store, but couldnt find any.
