aftermarket SMICs still being made anywhere?
 

Are there still any S(tock)MICs being manufactured?

seems like everything is FMIC or vmount.

All the old ones (blitz, greddy, arc,...) appear to be finished.
Is this the case?

Pettit Cool Charge 3

And a couple like knight sports or sr sports on RHD japan

Hadn't thought about it, but PFS doesn't seem to have a site anymore either.

Try rotary shack

they had some of the worst reviews on the planet iirc....

They went out of business in a bad way.... screwed over a lot of owners in the process as well.

Bad advice.

The owner and business were banned long ago and IIRC offer tremendously horrible customer service.

A search here yields many Bad Guy threads.

I think that's because there is not enough demand for brand new SMICs. There are also enough used SMICs to keep the market saturated.

You can still purchase the GReddy and Knightsports Units. There's also a knightsports-similar smic made in Aus. They're pretty slick.

where for greddy?

Yeah, where for Greddy? I thought they were only doing FMIC and V Mounts now?

There are like two Greddy SMICs for sale in the 3rd gen classifieds right now. One is in like new condition. Why don't you look in there?

There are tons of used ones in the classified section. Why buy new? It's not a wear item.

This is the latest improved version
premium u type intercooler

2 piece carbon fibre ducting

Improvements

Cores are 85mm thickness (were 75mm)

And carbon fibre ducting enlarged by
15mm on opening for max airflow to cores.

Good for 20psi at 8500rpm holds temps stable

I got the PFS that I'm going to post up eventually for sale.

All oem fitment

^What's the pressure drop? Academic anyway, as shipping would be prohibitively expensive.

Yeah, they're not cheap. But look at that thing. Sexy...

How is the AST mounted with the KS SMIC?
Looks like it's mounted on the waterpump?

Wear item, no, but you never can be certain that it doesn't have bits of turbine or apex seal lodged in it, just waiting to complete their journey home...

You could pressurize it with a tire pump and boost leak tester. This should clean it out.

Where can we get this intercooler?

^Where can we see test results for pressure drop?

It's mounted on the IC support rail to one side of the IC or other(assuming you have done something with a mini-battery or aftermarket-intake). Or, it can be deleted.
It looks to include some bracketry, but you might have to get creative to make it work with your setup. It should be approachable to make this bracket and get some longer/shorter coolant lines, for the DIYer.

How do you buy the ARD twin-pass IC? I can't find anything searching.
I guess you have to go through THE_DOCTOR. He's not hard to find :)

Unless I'm misunderstanding, all you'd do that way is uniformly pressurize the IC chamber. It wouldn't push anything through unless the thing was entirely clogged.

Instead, you'd need continuous pressurized flow through the unit, such as by hooking it up and crossing your fingers for 20k mi or so. :)
