Right,
Time has come to mount my FMIC, I'm using a Mitsubishi Lancer EVO 6 one, I have an idea how to mount it with slim fans (a recommendation for those would be good too) but how to route the pipework for it?
anyone have any pictures? I would think that around the chassis legs would be best looking at it...
Cheers lads
Brett

A photo of the IC would be good to see how big it is and also which way the inlet/outlets face.....

Just had a read through, and is real informative, I'm using 2" pipework mad of stainless steel in various bends,
might go for 2 x10" fans or possibly 12"

I'll be keeping an eye on this thread, want to get an fmic sometime but keep everything looking as OEM under the bonnet as possible so it'l be all black pipes of some sort!
Jtrigga - Are you not running a fuel filter or have you an inline stuck in behind there somewhere!
