lcr fmic

[rydoo]

i am currently pushing 300hp in my leon,my next mod is a fmic,is forge the only way to go as ive seen alot of universal setups?

Thanks

 

[jake]

would say so for that power. along with stronger inernals

How you manage 300bhp without one? must have high inlet temps?

i was very suprised myself mate,my mods are

decat
forge007p
jabba sport induction
4bar fpr
revo stage2 and on the rollers in made 297.7 bhp

Thats a hell of a lot from those mods, has it got a lot of torque to? I'd be watching internals if it has.

258 ft lb so not a great amount,i posted the graphs up on here just after it

Seems quite a high figure for Revo Stage 2, you should get a branded intercooler as they are better quality and better at cooling than the universal ones as tested by RobDon on here.

i was expecting around 270ish hp,its getting rolling roaded again in march else wear in march so shall see what power that sayes.

297bhp from a K04! Fair play to you, want kind of roller was it on?

 

[rydoo]

dastek mate

didnt think the k04 would go anywhere near that without WMI as scorchio and robdon have both proved ?
saying the torque is really down. with a good FMIC you should see another 20-30 ftlb.
i fitted a universal fmic last week and it seems to pull harder

Pro alloy do one too. Mind you its massive compared to side mounts and probably more suited to big turbo set ups but at least it aint going to be pushed to its limits by the k04 and has no worries with heat soak, and if you do decide to go big turbo its something you dont have to worry about.
Cant fault pro alloy, excellent quality and fit.
