Ed’s been a good customer of ours for quite some time.\u00a0 We’ve always come to know him as “Ed with the Front Mount”.\u00a0 Ed was sporting the Apollo FMIC kit which in our opinion sucks balls.\u00a0 I’d like to add as I was reading on another forum that FMICs CAN work on a Z32 when designed properly.\u00a0 The only one to our knowledge is the TDM FMIC Kit.\u00a0 We run it on our blue drag Z32.\u00a0 It has less bends and a very high quality core.\u00a0 The (Apollo) kit increases piping length and also adds more bends.\u00a0 This in turns adds to restrictions and loss of power, along with blocking airflow to the radiator.\u00a0 Slowly Ed fixed maintenance issues and did small upgrades along the way.\u00a0 Recently he finally decided to have us ditch his FMIC setup in favor of larger 2.5″ I\\C Piping, Ash Massives, and Z1 T.B.s to round out the combo.<\/p>\n

<\/a>This is a before and after from just changing out to the old FMIC to the larger I\\C piping, Massives, and T.B.s.\u00a0 Red run was the old FMIC, Blue run the new setup.\u00a0 Some gains down low and impressive gains up top.\u00a0 Almost 50 ft\\lbs and 60 whp gain at 6500 RPMs.\u00a0 Efficiency is key, more power on same boost levels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
