What brand and what size?

It will probably work with some new brackets and shaving/cutting done.

Dont think its going to work seeing that their GTI MK4 1.8t fmic kit has the inlet/outlet on the same side, this means you end up running way more pipes and this means more lag.




VS their kit for the A4 1.8t

That is massive. How much for that setup? I assume this is through your store... And ease of install? Scale of 1-10?

Actually that is one of the smaller FMIC kits on the market seeing that its only 2" thick. I dont sell the Evoms fmic but I do sell the Racetec which is pretty much exactly the same size, I also sell the ER Comp kit which is much larger with a rating of over 600hp.

Racetec





ER Comp



Installing a FMIC is pretty simple. The Racetec fits with very little trimming needed, hardes part is just getting the 2 hot side IC pipes to line up with each other. The ER kit will not fit behind the stock A4 bumper.


Now massive would be the FMIC I have on my car which is rated for over 800hp and its 3.5" thick.



It was custom made by ER but I now have them make it for me as the Race Series.
