For the "STi TMIC FTW!" crowd

Pretty good writeup on one of the ebay TMICs vs STi one.

 

yea..it actually doesnt look too bad in pics..I have yet to see one up close. All the reviews I have ever read on nasioc/clubwrx.net have said nothing but good things about em

 

I've got one if you want to check it out sometime. I'd like to get some temp readings on my setup sometime...

 

The Ebay TMIC actually has way less pressure drop than the STi one. I found that interesting.

 

Yeah but they are minor. Fitmit issues are rubbing the AC line (push them out the way) and the TB coupling is too short.

 

NO fitment issues at all with my ebay...

 

supposedy they are getting better. I have one on the way now. I decided to go with the ssautochrome TMIC. After reading on several boards about different ebay brands, I found that particular one was getting some awesome reviews. I got it shipped for $232

 

dynasty auto makes a nice one for around 180 shipped

 

FYI, I said no fitment issues, but... I did have to trim the rubber scoop seal, cut the mounting grommets in 1/2 (they wouldn't fit into the new holes) and getting it installed back into the silicone tubes is much more difficult afterwards.

 

Just got mine in. Hope to put it on in the next few days...now to do something about this whole "job" thing that keeps interfering with my car time!!
