Hiboost FMIC Install (56k warning)

[Heathen23]

I was driving today and noticed that the response of the turbo has drastically increased. It spools up much quicker especially in 4th and 5th gear. I don't know why I didn't do a front mount sooner.

Nice huh? 3rd gear is seamless for me and pulls to no end. You can't feel redline in 3rd (or for me that is) so be careful lol.

great write up

i remember a while back that you had said that you get that high pitch whining sound when you are at full boost (not normal spool up sound), and you it was normal. has the sound decreased or disappeared?

well after a night of wasting some gas...I must say the car feels great. It really does have some kick to it. I've noticed no overheating or heatsoak. Also no pipes have blown off which I think the T-Bolt clamps help with.

No more whislte noise that I heard with the stock SMIC and pipes.
