Anybody has an Old school HKS FMIC piping installation instructions?

Fully searched, but could only find the old School TRUST FMIC piping setup, which requires rotating the compressor housing 200 degree...

I just bought this kit used from 87GTR and he sadly didn't include some kind of installation manual or so....

I guess I figured out the piping from turbo to IC, but I know know from IC to TB

any help would be appreciated here

remember I searched so dont flame! :P

If it is the old trust FMIC search for it or ask HondaHater, he has it also.

there you go man. I took a bunch of pictures etc... because this was a problem for me as well and I did search after search on all the rx7 sites and none where very spacific about this install. It is basically bolt on, I had to do nothing as far as body mods to get it on. I also have the manual from hks if you want I can email it to you.

well it would be very nice to email me the manual!

I read your thread completely but I thought it was for the TRUST design, which requires rotating the compressor

I'll PM you my email adress

thanks

I didn't have to rotate the compressor housing at all.

the old school hks and greddy are completely different. even though they lool similar i couldn't use the greddy instructions and had to figure it out on my own.

you should have 3 60mm pipes, 2 50mm pipes and 2 elbows. from the top of the core to the tb goes the 60mm pipes. in order it goes: m-shaped pipe, j-shaped pipe, longest pipe, smaller elbow, stock 90 degree ic hose to tb. from the bottom of the core to turbo goes the 2 50mm pipes to the larger elbow to stock 90 degree ic hose to turbo. and the coolant bottle has to be relocated or the pipes won't fit.
