93 Legacy L Build (FMIC Install)

Post by usliberty »

Here are some pics of my FMIC install, used the IC/piping from my 93 SS. I did it a little different than last time in an effort to shorten the pipe runs.

I will post more pics when I get everything finished up. How do I get a members car build thread? This is my second build and is a FWD to AWD turbo swap, I think it might be helpful to someone else someday if I documented the whole build in one thread.

What kit was that originally? I have been trying to find something similar for mine, but have been hesitant to take the plunge just to find out I can't get it to work.

Love it, where can I get intercooler piping like this? Am I going to have to weld it up my self? What kind of bends did you use?

Its a CX racing kit for a GC8 impreza 280$ ebay. Initially I had to cut it up a bit to work, and buy a couple extra couplings, also had to buy a BOV flange adapter for my HKS. I would set aside a week, enough time to order parts if you had to.

Hmm, I'd like one of those kits too but I would really like to keep my ABS, airbox and charcoal canister. I think when I eventually go FMIC I will have to do some re-engineering to make it as clean of an install as I want to.

Nice install I have the same kit on mine an looks like im not the only one who had to modify it to fit, is that an rs-ra engine? If not I like the gold valve covers, if so I'm jealous! Lol.
