Post by: Stevey on October 19, 2008, 06:33:44 PM
I know there was a thread on Intercoolers called Vmount or FMIC but i cant find it anywhere :confused:
 
What are the advantages of both choices and where can you get them ?? I cant find anywhere but Ebay but im always worried about ebay stuff
 
Any help would be great :)

Stevey ... what you want to use the car for ?? as this is what i asked myself and i got a FMIC ... as a V mount is great but a bit over kill (due to price) for what i use the car for . I use it for fast road use (private road off course) and some 10-20 min track action slots. I bought a 3 row blitz FMIC + Pipes (got a deal from POTN.com)... i see cold air temps and good rad temps .  

If you are using it for loads of track action then go v mount . as it will keep the rad cooler for longer track sessions or day sessions.

Blimey, a v-mount doesn\'t cost that much more than that Blitz FMIC!

Hi, its Ben from Lindopmotorsport we can supply and fit either a v mount or a Fmic, v mount kits we do for £950 +vat (single or twin) plus fitting,  also taking in to consideration we would need to look at fueling and mapping etc. Fmic we can do for £238 + vat plus fitting. We would recomend you go for a v mount for better cooling and air temps.

I got a great deal on mine ... as i got quotes for £1500 for a v mount all in... too pricy for me ... i got the FMIC fitted for £350 Deal i got from SpeedSpec Topgear Slough and with the IC itself cost me £300 .. it was a massive saving on a V mount.

I would just say to Stevey "ask yourself" what you use the car for . Does it need a top spec v mount if you will never push its cooling capability.
