With this FMIC? yes...considering this is the tightest fit for FMICs I would say the pettit intakes should work with any FMIC.

Dude, looking good...Glad to see you can take a decent pic...those ones you PMed me were kinda pathetic

Why's the hood up in your other pics on the site? Not the ones with it fully propped open, but with it mostly closed. fitment problem with FMIC pipes?

yeah, stock radiator sucks *** for cooling in this position....my temps are at 200-210 on the highway, and about 210-220 in the city

when i turn the car off they go to 240-250....my koyo arrives on tuesday (later today)

i bought everything from jason (www.rx7store.net) and I received everything just about next day...with the exception of the radiator, must be a hot item

jason's also getting me an HKS SS bov flanged welded onto a hardpipe, so I should have that in soon, right jason?

i'm thinking of getting the b&m short throw from jason like apneablue did

the lenses are smoked, i did it with "niteshades", i bought the can from 3sxperformance.com

my sidemarkers are also smoked, stock AST will be eliminated soon

the car pulls so hard from a roll now...especially when the temps outside are 50 or below

i ran a CBR600 from a roll, pulled on him so hard.....so very hard, he lost $100 that night

koyo rad, 80% water/20% antifreeze/water wetter, power fc set to run fans at 86 and 87 C, ported water/oil passages (inside motor) and a secondary oil cooer (r1/r2 models) all work together to keep the motor cool (86 to 87 C on the street, 90 to 95 C on the track). suggest getting an aluminum ast. jason will need to your replace you upper rad hose when you install the koyo--it's the thickest rad for the fd.
