It this possible with any form of FI? blowing your motor just by over revving it accidentally in neutral? that sucks! in the rare occasion i miss a gear, i tend to over rev most of the time. guess i gotta be more careful from now on...

Yup. happened on gettinafit's k swap (although he wasn't boosted) and on this one too apparently. you could blow your engine stock by doing this but i bet it is much easier with FI and stock internals. That's one of the reasons why i love my a/t. in s mode it has a rev limiter. If only it didn't loose an extra 5-10% power. Still would have loved to get a manual though.

update: no need to remove fogs

I've received news that the fogs lights will not interfere with the FMIC and will remain be fully functional.

Seriously, a turbo kit that retains the fog lights?

whats Greddy doing differently than both AJ-racing and HKS?

are the using like 1 inch intercooler pipes or what?

Doubt they will retain the fogs, without horribly disrupting flow of the air in the intercooler.

it's pretty much impossible to do this and retain efficiency

I'll try to get the information.. I HIGHLY doubt they're using 1in. piping though.

I honestly would love to see some pics aswell... I'll keep you guys posted.

EDIT: in order for the IC to fit, trimming the bumper is necessary.
