JamieP Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Depends what you want from the car.. decent condition smic can take a fair amount of power:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pig Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 As jamie said, whats your goals for the car. Have a search for BPU and single turbo upgrades etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefgroover Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Good stuff when going BPU, decent power increase, especially noticable on a cold day. HKS and Greddy seem to be high on most peoples shopping list. You get what you pay for, stick with the tried and trusted. If you have an active spoiler you have some issues there. Either its bolted down all the time, removed, or you make a custom fab one to retain it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisSZ Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Your best bet is to mount it as far forwards as possible. If you can get it right out in front it'll look loads better. See this thread for more info http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=86302 :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan_blue Posted November 5, 2006 Author Share Posted November 5, 2006 not going to far with engine. will be doing some bpu ie decats and that. just think the engine is quite a hot runner and also what syour opinions of the routing of the air intake? right behind the bonnet!!

mikeyb10supra Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 emic perhaps not lol Good lad Stock box is as good as any induction wise...leave well alone SMIC or FMIC are both good....I went for a FMIC and never regret it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alan_blue Posted November 6, 2006 Author Share Posted November 6, 2006 thanks for the pm mate, with ref to air induction, i meant that the intake is in a bad position as its behind the bonnet so wont get good flow will it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 thanks for the pm mate, with ref to air induction, i meant that the intake is in a bad position as its behind the bonnet so wont get good flow will it The stock airbox is sealed from the engine bay heat and has 2 cool air feeds one in front of the rad and the other behind the headlight.

Alex Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 It's got a good enough feed if it's using the stock air box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
