Just curious as to what I could do with the dual side mount ICs and a larger turbo. What would be the biggest turbo that would work in that situation and what kind of power could I expect?

 

i know eurojet makes aftermarket SMIC's... maybe those 2 dual?

 

Stock ic's, stock turbo. Them bad boys are heatsoaked with a chip, let alone a bigger turbo.

 

Ok... guess I'm going to have to loose the functionality of the headlamp washer system if I want the FMIC. I looked into the Euro jet SMIC and it appears that it's only for the 180 cars. I don't drive the car in the winter anyway. It's a good weather car that doesn't even come out in the rain. Chris Gigon from APR told me that one of the washers will be impeded by the kit. It's a shamethat's the case. I hate it when something that fixes one thing breaks another.

 

Its the best path for the piping, im sure there is a kit that would let you keep the washers, im not sure which one. Have you looked into Forge's kit yet?

 

Forge let you keep the washers....I'm 100% positive

 

I can't find the Forge kit for the 225. Can someone send me a link?

 

www.ttstuff.com has them or you can find it on www.forgemotorsport.co.uk

I think its what steve schwing uses. You can check his fotki on modshack.info also.

 

By the look of this, i dosnt seem like you would need to lose the washers.

 

Yeah... the Forge kit looks like a nice package. I was hoping to go with the APR kit because I like their stuff and I get good prices on stuff from them, but I don't want to put something on my car that is going to break functionality of something else. I'm going to go with the Forge FMIC even if I don't go BT. I didn't realize the heat soaking issue was there with just a chip. I want to get everything possible out of the car with the stock turbo, and if I do go BT later then the foundation is properly laid for it.
