Any pics of a FMIC on a Trans Am in that it's barely visible? I can't say I'm a fan of FMIC's being visible on Trans Ams..

well just imagine the front end of a t/a...that would be a barely visible fmic. you might be able to see it from the cracks between the nose and front plate. that would be it.

I had the TTI tuck away like stoleit and all I can say is if you cant see it its not getting enough air. My Iats were keeping me from making more power even with the plate cutout mod.

Stoleit, I did a conversion to an OBX without making new charge piping, if you want to see pics let me know.

Pics in my camera, I just finished last week and am doing shake downs. I will have them to you before the weekend is over. Once you see them you will say "Oh, ok that looks easy" (not being sarcastic it is really that easy)

Only thing is that without the front plate cutout you wont get much air. I think Kyle on here did his but he could still put the plate cover back on when he wanted to.

I have some silicone to start with for sale. One 3.5 to 3.0 reducer, for the MAF to 3.0 pipe.
4.0-3.5 rubber elbow for the TB to maf, and a 3.0-3.0 hump hose for right off the IC to provide flex for engine movement. I also have a straight 10 length of 3.0 silicone to make connectors for pipes. 3 tbolt clamps as well and various other silicone hose for whatever use you can come up with. All this stuff is new too. 70+shipping and its yours.

ehh should've also asked if they're even worth it if they aren't visible or don't have the front tag over out or the foglights...

SuperSport2000. What did you do to convert your twin IC ATI to One big one. That is the set up I would like to do in my SS. Thanks for the info .

look under the fuse box and ull see a hole, about 4in x 4in, right there, and onother one facing the front of the car. right there. kinda hard to imagine it but somehow tti made that work. ill take some pics when i can scrub up some free time, but that hole probably wouldn't be big enough to house a pipe to ur liking.

Default OBX guys

Can you give me an estimated parts list for your FMIC plumbing? It looks like I am going to have to piece together a kit.

This would be for the F-1 in an SS

Thanks in advance..
