Well you need to buy all the piping for a front mount. You can either buy the whole kit which includes the piping for it or you can just buy the front mount and do the piping yourself. and make sure you get the rite bov flange for whatever bov you get.

Keep the questions coming SpeedRacer, that's what we're here for.

One kit I like that allows for the stock foglights and only requires minimal cutting is an FMIC kit from ETS.

I have the 7" (longer and I have the short route kit)

That's obviously not my car and that one has the 10.5" kit (taller). This is just an example from the site to show the foglights still in place.

Isnt a FMIC overkill if he is still running the T-25? Or is it okay to run a fmic with the T-25

Hah...You're correct, Nate. An fmic is too big for the t25. I missed that bit of info[>:]

Thats what i thought... Speedracer, you need a bigger turbo like a EVO III, 20G, Big 16G, T-28 or whatever you may choose and then you can run a fmic. Your T-25 wont like you if you put on a fmic

Wow, thats pricy, I think you can get a Dejon for around that. What do you guys think of the Ebay ones? I know they probibly arent the best. But for a simple bolt on car, I dont want to spend massive amounts of money.

it sounds like you ar elookin for nothing but looks. putting a FMIC on your car w/ a stock turbo will actually slow your car down. an Ebay fmic will slow you down even more than a quiality FMIC. for a quiality kit you are looking at apx 1000. this will ensure qulality and performance. but if ur looking for something cheap that does nothing but look good and make you slow, go for ebay.
