Taggy Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 As most of you know i am getting my exhaust made up next friday (25th nov) at prospeed, which is costing me a nice £340. I had heard he could also make up the intercooler pipework for me but had a bit of a shock when he quoted me an additional £560 for it.£560 for an FMIC, bloody hell i thought, think i will give that a miss, i was expecting no more than £250, but it was more than double that!!Does anyone know anyone else who can make me one but at a sensible price?

Taggy Posted November 16, 2011 Author Share Posted November 16, 2011 Well i have still got the FMIC kit from my ep82 which was custom made, although the ep70 is a bit of a different shape, to tell you the truth I couldnt be arsed to mess around getting it to fit and wanted a nice new one, but as much as i want one I aint paying that price!Oh well, looks like i will have to get the hacksaw out and pipe some ingenious routing of pipes and silicone!have you seen the pipe kits on ebhay?http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TOYOTA-STARLET-E...#ht_1616wt_1251you may have to get some more silicone pipes and cut it up to fit but mite work at a fraction of that silly quote you had!

Taggy Posted November 16, 2011 Author Share Posted November 16, 2011 I couldn't understand how a full exhuast system for the car was £320 but the fmic was £560!I rang him back because i thought i might have got him confused and he meant £560 for both, but no £560. fuck me.surely thats not a true price of all places?its only a small car! i was gonna get some custom ones made up for my n/a but guess its gonna have to be playing with cutting up universal ones and silicone now :s Quote Link to post Share on other sites
