lol........don't sweat it
I can't make kits for everyone. There will be a couple versions of the kit and the rest who want something different will have to fab it up yourself.. It's just too expensive for me to make all of these kits

Thanks Jan
I wasn't asking anyone to fab up a FMIC kit I was just looking at what it would take to do it. Going with the outlet on the top leaves little room for pumping to the front. Outlet on the bottom would allow me to do run to a FMIC much more easily. My plan was to do it myself, but since I live 2000mi away it's difficult to see the unit in person.
Cheers

Your best bet would be to get the narrow dual pass radiator for the Rotrex kits. The piping would go relatively easy around the rad to whatever core you use. BELL INTERCOOLERS will make any configuration of I/C you want, but they can be pricy.
Yeah, Im already planning this out.

That was the plan--there are a lot of intercoolers that will work but not sure about quality/pressure drop of some brands??? an up graded R56 intercooler might even work well?

I would rather do a custom, that way the end tanks can feed in a better location.
What I am planning keeps the I/C core on the smaller side, so it wont cause as much of a loss in pressure. Then meth will take care of the rest.

If you're worried about cooling, just get a W2A and call it a day?

PLEASE CHECK YOUR OIL.
Yesterday i was investigating a motor failure caused by what appears to be lack of oil.
Dont let this happen to you,
Or do if you want a stroker.
I tried killing mine and failed. I must be doing something wrong.
lol just kidding.. thanks for the oil pan gasket and baffle install Colin!

The way i see it is if you want a front mount intercooler because you want to track the car that bad.
just buy a rotrex.
The pressure loss and packaging problems with the TVS just make it not worth it.
Take it from me, ive worked on all of these cars extensively, from front mount rotrex kits to poking with the new TVS kit a little bit.
If you want to run a TVS and track it just get a water to air or run meth.
