welshbuddy Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 isn't the bov adapter a add on ? like you got to buy a flange? sorry if im incorrect ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barneybrendan Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 ones like the greddy rs have either flanges or a section of pipe you have to fit in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbuddy Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 i Guess you get what you pay for aswell matey. But i have heard of low price stuff being good , so its a hit or miss like you said. SRD do 1 for 399. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony tt Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I would go for the srd one mate at least you know 100% its going to fit properly with no hassle. Nothing worse than buying from a random on ebay and it gives you grief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robzki Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I can highly recommend the SRD one, has absolutely everything you need, mine even included stuff I didn't need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra N_A Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share Posted December 15, 2011 ahhh can keep the bov were it is were the stock one goes when using the fmic on the twin turbo i take it?? http://www.supraracingdevelopment.co.uk/site/components/com_jshopping/files/img_products/full_92080c70d18082f8c1129531dcb90531.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robzki Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Yep, and just remove the stock one when it starts leaking and just run without. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sideexitsupra Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 If you want a good quality one, Paul at Whifbitz has just started a group buy on his new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraDan24 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I've just looked at his feedback aswell, i wouldnt buy from him mate. Go with SRD's or Whifbitz ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robzki Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I wouldn't get an ebay one. but as to his feedback, almost 1300 sales and 13 complaints in a month is a 1% fail. I'm not sure if anyone else has met the general public but that sounds like a pretty good rate to me. Do something 100 times on your own without making a mistake is pretty easy, add another person into the equation and there are a lot more variables to consider.

Do something 100 times on your own without making a mistake is pretty easy, add another person into the equation and there are a lot more variables to consider. Plus 9 Neutral feedback. Its not the percentage i was refurring too anyway, its the content. Ignoring people trying to get into contact with you because you've made a mistake is no way to run a business. There's nothing worse than trying to get in touch with someone who is blatently avoiding responsibility. Also, more than one refer to him not knowing anything about his products.

abtin90 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 The company selling the eBay one has their own website too. Search toyosports on google. They have the bov adaptor on their website for £15 and a fitting kit for £12. My friend recently fitted one to his supra and seems pretty pleased with it though the piping does require quite a bit of fab work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashbuster Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 i searched in google and a couple links down this shows http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?tid=163089 lol then below that http://uk-mkivs.net/forums/t/448551.aspx?PageIndex=1 doesnt sound good to me, these are the first things that pops up in google Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 If you're set on that FMIC, then go for it. We have offered our thoughts and opinions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sams Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 i used one of these and if you still have aircon the n/s pipe from the cooler to the up pipe is too short. i managed to get mine extended. on an other note the cooler is not very good quality i replaced mine for a branded one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra N_A Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 yea i kno the manifold are shite tbh it was the exact same for the starlet the mani cracked in 1 day BUT like said the FMIC seems to be no problems well that was with the starlet but might be different with the supra styles yea think ill contact paul they seem great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
