BigBopper Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 What's wrong with the TMIC to throttle body hose. It might not get but, it works. Could be a bit longer to make for a better fit. I'd say 1/2" or 3/4" longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 How about... make us a FMIC that clears the crash beam!!! After seeing the picture of AVO's FMIC on a non USDM car I'm not sure someone could make one without cutting/modifying involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aerophool Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 What's wrong with the TMIC to throttle body hose. It might not great but, it works. Your lovely TMIC is sits off-center with the original hose---slightly to the passenger side of the car. Could be a bit longer to make for a better fit. I'd say 1/2" or 3/4" longer. ...and jog slightly more to the right (forward looking aft).

Thanks another reason I made the TMIC first. It's very tight. But, I had an idea on how to do it. I haven't seen anyone max my TMIC yet and a big demand for a FMIC.

ebo03 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Thumbs up to Bryan for showing us 5th gen guys some love. Keep us posted on the progress of the intake & charge pipe. Looking forward to seeing the completed products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsme Posted January 19, 2013 Author Share Posted January 19, 2013 I have just wanted to check with you guys. Would everyone like to have the BOV in the stock location? Some have asked about moving it farther for easier access. But, you will have to get a new return hose. Let me know because I want to get started. Also I can get a discount on aftermarket BOVs for 2010+ LGT.

islandborn Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I think that would be awesome if it was more accessable. You can swap it easier, and pressure test them far easier. Our stock is soooo far hidden since its next to the turbo. The small distance wouldn't even make a bit of difference. Stay with the stock flange as there are many aftermarket bvs that will attach. (We are the same as the evox). TMIC plus this charge pipe with the relocated bv - great combo IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a bit longer to make for a better fit. I'd say 1/2". Bryan, Please seriously consider developing a longer TMIC to Throttle Body hose. I had to fight that OEM biaa-tch again last night. If it was 1/4" longer on each side (1/2" overall) it would work so much better, and allow the hose clamps a better bite for a secure coupling, especially when running increased boost levels. As it is, I have to "cheat" the hose position 1/4" on either side to get proper fitment of your TMIC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islandborn Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 ^ I love that idea. So based off bigbopper's and others, a "delux" package from you would come with your TMIC, charge pipe with relocated BV flange, tube extender for the BV, and a longer cut throttle hose. For those that have your TMIC - we buy the accessory kit separate..... And I want to be the first one!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEASER Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Put me down for the aforementioned accessory kit. I will do the tmic later when I am out of powertrain warranty, but want to get everything ready for that and a tune now.

Since my build is looking fairly similar to BB's I'm going to have to second whatever he says as I'll be running into the same issues come April/May when I do my turbo swap.

That is about $280 for the relocation kit or the kit and bov? I may have to keep stock location because it doesn't look like there is much room to put it somewhere else. BOVs come in different sizes and some may not have enough clearance if I move it. Any Socal member want to come by and let me look at your car.
