    I have had it for almost a year now and it has performed perfectly. I had one boost leak a month or two ago when the top hose clamp came loose. I tightened it back up in 30 seconds. I have friends that have bought other brands that have gotten boost leaks on a fairly regular basis all over all over the system. I have had No complaints at all. I am very happy with it and I will definitely be buying any future mods that they come out with.

    Are you able to install an OCC with your FMIC install. Does the piping block a possible installation of OCC ?

    Thanks for your help.

    My question is ... do you install a FMIC with an OCC on your car ? It's possible to route the OCC piping with the FMIC piping ?

    Is it a good move to pass from an upgraded TMIC like my CPE to a FMIC for my daily driving speed3

    That depends on your goals. Are you looking to make more power ? How are you tuning the car ? What other mods have you installed ?

    regarding the SURE seals

    http://www.torontomazda3.ca/forum/sh...-your-own-risk

    ever dyno'd the car or are you relying on virtual dyno plots to determine your 330 hp/ 392 tq?

    It's ok ... I know you just try to help.

    but can you help me for my decision between the CPE TMIC (already have) and UR FMIC + OCC. Is it difficult to mix the OCC piping and the FMIC piping or it's simple.

    No, you don't "Need" it... depends if you "Want" it... you can do either its just little bit of work to do the installs, just like every other mod

    just keep the CPE TMIC.


    you can run the OCC hoses through the FMIC piping, it's more of a hassle, but it is not impossible.

    as for what you want for daily driving, only you can make that decision.

    as for the SURE seals do yourself a favour and return them or throw them in the garbage.

    Oh damn, that sucks. Oh well, I stopped reading the Speed section because according to certain people only speed owners are allowed to even look at that section.
