Cold intake with FMIC ?
Does anyone have pics of their cold air intake using a FMIC, I cant seem to find any good places to put the intake, there is just no room... It seems the only option would be to get a vented hood or cold air light cover... Just looking for options I was going to make my hardpipes today but I dunno what to do now...

There really isn't any room...although I saw Jegs (compact car section) had some sort of flexible/hard tubing in 3" and 4" diameter, either 2 or 4 ft. length which may allow you to route a filter to a cooler location.

http://autoparts.zoovy.com/product/1004 I don't think this will fit with any of the FMIC kits. With FMIC, air volume and velocity take precedence over air intake temp into the primary and secondary turbos. Afterall you have a huge FMIC core that is MUCH more efficient in cooling the compressed intake air (because the FMIC core is directly in the air stream), compared with a large SMIC core (which is not in the air stream and depends on a small duct opening to get cooling air to the IC core). FWIW, the GReddy dual air intakes works beautifully with my GReddy Type 24 V-spec FMIC and Koyo rad (with slight mods to the Koyo rad hoses).
