While fixing the damage I decided to fit a FMIC for a later power upgrade and so that I can put on a non vented and less "look at me" bonnet. Many shinies came in the post, this kit appears identical to the Japspeed FMIC kit but was over £100 cheaper.
Got to work starting fitting it when it arrived in the post
You know it isn't gonna be a fun day when you have to make one of these tools. I had to cut off a bracket on the fan cowling as it fouled the FMIC pipe.
Got a splitter dump valve for more noise because I am a massive chav, had a little bit of a bodge to get it to meet the old pipe.
Kit all fitted
And the car looking awesome, needs a couple of clips put in once I get it up in the air tomorrow. Gonna have to get the STi covers for the fog light holes as alot of the fog light support had to go because of the intercooler pipes.
