to my knowledge all FMIC's require you to mount the radiator vertically instead of diagonal like the stock configuration..
when i had a GReddy FMIC i had to mount it vertically..
The con to the FMIC is the air it blocks going to the radiator... if you can duct everything perfectally you shouldn't notice too much difference.
Pro to FMIC is a cooler intake charge.

Did you already have a Fluidyne??
Why did you change?? to Mazdacomp?
When both radiators are or almost equal??
Since the radiator is mounted behind the FMIC.
What kinda of special DUCTING do you guys do??
Pictures of a Duct set up would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

On both the right and left sides of the radiator are huge gaps.. Fab up some aluminum or foam blockers to keep the air going through the radiator. You can also make a panel to sit on top of the IC and Rad to keep air from flowing over top of the radiator.. I'm sure someone has a pic of that. Here's mine. No cooling problems what-so-ever.
