What do you guys think about the 9-3 Viggen FMIC?

Post by FG!! »

Just a consideration at this point.

They are cheap: Scroll down on this page .....$166 brand new.

bunch of real life pics and stuff on this thread: http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=694639&page=1

Core is 21.5x6.5x2.5 and total with endtanks is 30.5. Looks like it'll fit with a little bumper hacking. Getting the tubes into the engine bay looks kinda tough though.

I know TMIC is easier to install, but I'm not worried about that.
Performance, cost, and reliability are most important.

Are you sure about those dimensions? The stocker on the viggen seemed a lot smaller to me last time I looked. The end tanks are made of plastic though.
