RE: FMIC question **Update** FMIC Got here today PICTURES***
I wish my FMIC install only took 6hrs... That would be great! I've had to fab up everything for the mount, so it's been alot of thinking and tinkering. I'm on the final leg though and should have it up by tonight after work.

If you're thinking of running methanol to help with cooling, why not just build an FMIC myster? That way it keeps the intercooler....um...cooler and you only go through water! I don't knowabout you guys, but I have that water stuff practically coming out the taps at my house! [sm=smiley20.gif]

water misting just helps fight heat soak in the ic and if you have the correct size core in the first place this wouldnt be a problem. Plus there is far more benifiet to water meth...
in short, they lower iat (intake air temps) below abient, reduces knock (knock will pull timing = lower hp), clean the cylinders, act like race gas (allows for more timing and/or boost) and can be used in a single or dual nozzle set up for differnt gains and can use either strait distilled water, dist water and HEAT (which is meth available at part stores) or even some ww fluids

Oh yeah Chris.... if you run out of fluid to inject, timing most certainly will get pulled back by the ecu and you just need to lower the boost back within reason (that is if you raised it).

ahh i see. Well maybe I'll give it a shot. Im doing suspension next, but i'll have a ton of time on my hands for a few months until my BT... so maybe i'll research more and get some more confidence in the system and try it.
