JSK05LGT Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 AVO TMIC, good price and great fitment on the v2's that are available now. I would recommend ordering through Rallitek if they have it in stock you should get it quickly depending on where you are at. http://www.rallitek.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGTspecB1657615261 Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 if i were to wait and get the avo fmic do i need to replace my turbo.. with a perrin i would You just need an adapter that converts the outlet of the turbo. In fact, I think there is one for sale on this forum. Then, either kit will work. Most kits you can order with the adapter as an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strizzy Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 How much boost can the OEM TMIC handle before issues? I'm at 19psi. My bad luck build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subleg05gt Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 mine leak at 15psi or so. but you will see oil residue if it is leaking. just clean it and jb weld works wonders. I wouldnt hurt to check it. and jb weld it just incase. takes a couple of hours and its cheap for JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blklgt Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 yea its leakin where it bolts up too.. not sure if yours was.. i have ap and it said stage 2... 238whp and 240tq w protune.. but yea i been thinkin i wanna go fmic instead... so oem it is till then..

subleg05gt Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Yes sir. JB weld fixed that problem right quick. nice and strong. Its works for Stage 2. Yea there is no point to buy a top mount for 800 when u can get a front mount for just over that, but if u can find one used then its worth it. Used top mounts are hard to come by. Even if u find one u cant wait, got to jump right on it or ur beat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subleg05gt Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 i would try taking the intercooler off and cleaning it and then JB. its a small inexpensive way. especially if your running 19psi on the stock one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More power is nice, but not at the expense of critical safety features. Airbag sensors are not in the bumper. Most modern cars have g-force sensors somewhere under the dash.

blklgt Posted October 28, 2009 Author Share Posted October 28, 2009 its a 2 part mix... mix some on a piece of card board and then smear it where ever and then it will harden... u can sand it down later if u want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
