Anyone got an uprated TMIC like MRT? If so, does it make a noticeable difference?

Hi

I have fitted the APS one. Superb quality and works very good with a IHIVF23

Frank :-)

Trout has (I think) the MRT uprated TMIC and he is getting something like 345 on the rollers, competing with the FMIC boys....

Question

What about in "real life" with heat soak and radiated heat whilst waiting at junctions etc. ?

I found a massive difference after fitting a front mount, spose if you had i/c spray on top mount it would be better.

Mine is not producing 345 anyway, its only a slow one.

Cheers all, MD.

Bob,

I appreciate FMIC must be best for serious Scoobies, but I only intend to run around 300bhp max, and never go on the track. So wouldn't a better TMIC be a more cost efective solution? What do you reckon?

Go for a front mount, far better option and far better results. David has water injection as well, with a front mount its not really needed ie same result without.

Answer is "yes" but the FMIC will enable you to achieve that with ease and a higher degree of safety. Uprated top mount is "ok" but without water injection still restricts. Don't think there is much in the cost except for labour.
