Walker96 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Wondering if it will be okay to use the stock tmic at 1 bar on a ct9? Or would it be safer too run it at 0.8 bar? Will be used for the odd track day ect just cant afford an fmic as well as a map and exhaust manifold. Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
funny onion Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 I ran 1 bar on an ARC top mount for 2 years. was absolutely fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Hang out for a fmic imo. They can handle 1 bar just track days...heat... it's rolling the dice. The cooler the engine the better obviously. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gorganl2000 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 just a little side note...when you get the intercooler kit,,,i'd suggest you run some water through it first to see if its all clean (no bits of metal, etc) before you install it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Madge1980 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Just to let you know that is identical to the kit I bought and I can't fault it to be fair for the money. Easy to install if you know one end of a spanner from another, and a pretty good fit with just a bit of modifying to the brackets. Only running 0.8 bar through it at the moment though so can't comment on how well it will be at 1 bar. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
