In order to be qualified, you must:

- Own a 01-05 WRX

- The more stock, the better!

- Must be willing to travel to West Chester / Philadelphia, PA area for testing

- If YOU were looking to do a FMIC set-up on your WRX, then this is for you!

i have an 02 wrx, but i already have a FMIC. as well as a mishimoto radiator.

Subie_sleeper · 10-01-2010, 11:45 AM

FY eye (lol)
02-03 = Bug eye
04-05 = Blob/Peanut eye
06-07 = Hawk eye

There's probably a difference in clearance between the three body styles.

Mishimoto · 10-01-2010, 11:55 AM

We are aware of the differences.

Thanks.

quickline2 · 10-01-2010, 02:46 PM

I'm no sherlock holmes but this quote leads me to believe they are going to use your car to test fit the kit and then you'll drive away with the 1st production model mishimoto FMIC.

There is no 2001 wrx in the US btw

Good luck designing a kit that is unique. Every kit out there isn't designed correctly IMHO

cvcrcr99 · 10-03-2010, 11:49 AM

WRX elsewhere in the world started in 01 though.

Area, have you come up with a design that is "correct"? Is it in production yet? When are you planning on releasing?

RyanG · 10-03-2010, 04:39 PM

Actually the WRX started in 92 as a 93 model year "elsewhere" in the world if you want to get technical.

I infact do have a better design and no I will not go into production with it. The traditional designs from Perrin, APS, TXS, CSS, SSAC are routed the wrong way. They all have the "cold side" pipe going over the turbo. Which is retarded. The Greddy kit has it right routing it on the other side of the bay. The issue is length of piping on Subarus.
