    They only did the one for me about 4 weeks ago i think that's why they haven't list it on their site yet. but if you ring them up and mention about David's MPS 3 then they will know what you're talking aobut and should sort you out, maybe even with a better price.

    and yes you are right, i read the same article and contacted them about it and that's what started the whole thing and it's been great so far. Got my turbo inlet and intake installed on the weekend too and it's just AWESOME!!!!

    Have fun with yours!!

    Im pretty keen on one of these kits, do you know if any modifications had to be made?? or waassit direct fit literally ( i know the ambient sensor has to be relocated obviously). Does it have a flange to fit the stock/aftermarket bypass valve? and is the piping 2.5" ?

    Thanks EGDIVAD

    i quite like the setup, in particular the hot pipe from the turbo to the cooler, it goes over the top and down to the right hand side of the car onto the end tank, less bends = less lag.

    I've see other kits that are just a snake pit of piping, with some having a long asss pipe from over the gearbox, down and across the back of the radiator then into the cooler.

    do you happen to have any more photos or would you be able to take photos of the cold side pipe and also around the turbo???

    Cheers!

    It was a very neat install, the only things that got relocated was the power steering radiator (the black tubing sits in from of the radiators and goes around itself and with little fins on it, it got moved up a little to provide air path to the IC) and the temperature sensor stayed where it was, in front of everything. The pipe is 2.5” all the way and they come with the tubing for the bypass valve.


    i got some more pics too here, but let me know if you need more. i can organise something if you guys are interested.

    Im guessing CAI is not an option with this FMIC? the cold pipe seems to take up the path a normal CAi would

    but with some clever pipe work you should still be able to do it, i was going to but thought the SRI is much easier to install

    Great result, so inbetween dyno runs what was changed exactly? I didn't relize the stock intercooler caused such a restriction.

    Only the intercooler was changed inbetween dynos, the SRI was installed much later
