Welcome.....nice ride! More pics tho....small video?
08-11-2010
i have the one video i posted with the picture. the only other video i have of the car is a pretty crappy, it running the 13.32 at night. you can hear it but video is blurry, and short

Why not just do a FMIC?
08-11-2010
never looked into it. could you link some pics/info of M90's with one? i wasnt quite sure how i would pull it off.

Depending on the space you have on top, which doesnt seem too be too much I would look at getting a hat and putting on top or depending on on your fab abilities putting an inlet between the snout and rotors.

how would you do a FMIC on a blower car?
08-11-2010
ive seen the aussie guys do a front mount, but i dont have that kind of room, and it would cause a little more work for me than i want going that route
08-11-2010
well, yeah, they do have a FMIC setup, but making it fit for us would be a pain in the ass to say the least.
besides, non-intercooled is the way to go.
08-11-2010
why is that?
08-11-2010
because you dont have all the crap that comes along with trying to intercool it.
with your car i would run cam only.

Everything will be added, what else does my car need to intercool it?
im already running an XP cam.

The M90s from ford were IC'd from the factory. If Ford can do it back in 1989 we should be able to do it with the aftermarket items available today. There are 02 V8s Camaros IC'd have to be able to IC a V6.
With the engine that far back it has to help with weight transfer and center of gravity.
I hear this is a good site for maro's but I have never used their info. www.camaroz28.com www.ls1tech.com is a great site if you just want to see some mounting options.
Put a 6.0L Diesel IC in mine, so with time, patience and some $ it will fit. That setup is very tight though, but it can be done. If you use the M90 case from a Ford it would be a lot of work on the TB end, but it would just require swapping out some pins on the front of the case to add the GP snout. Too much work for what me, but if you are interested that is an IC route.

Ive seen that intercooler routing and have looked into something like that. i might have more issue though with the room i have and the fitment/fabrication needed. i didnt want to get that far into it. Thank you for the input.
But if it is a waste to intercool an M90 with a cam, i would like to know before i spend $1000 on one

I know that I am too lazy to change the status on it, but here are picts of the car before i passed it along.

The FMIC wouldnt work because of the inlet and outlet of the intercooler plate. most of the aussies have issues with tuning as well. Who needs another headache.
