turbominicooper Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 as above, how much boost can pass through the TMIC before considering going FMIC (ie before seeing a loss in cooling performance)? cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I've read up to 1 bar, fmic's are much better imo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
5e colin Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 i ran 1 bar +- on tdo4 stock topmount worked great and spooled a good bit faster then with the fmic after !!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

5e colin Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 ha ha and he proved the arc is worse then the oem 1 !!! nice 1 indeed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I would go for the rx7 tmic if you don't want a front mount, be great for quick spools Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 The temepratures Tim was seeing is in the territory of engine melt down. Intake temps above 60 degrees tend to start causing damage. The only thing the 4E has in it's favour is it's such low compression ratio. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
