Greddy FMIC - Size?
 

I've seen the answer before, but cant find it.
How big is the Greddy FMIC? Do you have to cut i the front-bumper to get room? What have the install for angle? any pictures from the side maybe???

I've tried to do a paper-IC and can't get i to stand right up, even if it only 25cm high and 72cm wide... 6cm thick...

It's an S4 -88

Pleas help me!!

Bump!

the greddy you have to cut the bumper support and put holes in the sheet metal behind the headlights. the greddy is designed to fit INFRONT of the subframe rails. It mounts straight up and down. RX7.com has pics of an install.

I had one made that is 26X8X3 (inches), tank to tank, so that it will fit between the frame rails, a few inches back from the front bumper and attach to the metal support below where the relays are behind the bumper and (you have to take the plastic trays out to see this bar).

The end tanks exit to the rear and tubes run up to near the radiator and go through the sheet metal in a similar fashion to the cooling air duct for the battery. Have to cut sheet metal here, but no big deal.

In any case.. battey removal to the rear is a good idea when running a front mount, and an intake adapter that turns the intake straight out instead of up to the back like stock will make plumbing a bit easier. I also ditched my A/C system to give more room.

I have said in other posts that

1) the greddy sits right in the front of the car.. great for cooling... but it will then be open for rock and bump damage, especially on a lowered car. I really don't want to loose an 800 dollar core to a rock or bad road.

2) its sits so damn close that its almost impossible to put a screen over it and leave any room for compression should it need to absorb an impact

3) if somebody backs into your car, or you hit a pole at sheets... CRUNCH..

do you have any pics of your install?? you can mail them to tegheim83@hotmail.com in that case, would be a big help!
