bug eye FMIC!
ANyone fitted one and if so did you have to cut away that long bar across the front that is very thick and very errr serious looking.
Im having major difficulties doing mine! lol
any help would be much appreciated.
Seems the bumber needs some mild trimming too........ 4" or so!
ALL GOOD IN THE NAME OF PERFORMANCE!

angle grinder works well on the bar The only part that is required to hold the bumper is the top curly bit.
I believe the bar is there mainly to protect the engine components at low speed shunts, but I may be wrong.
Edit: Angle grinder works well on the bumper also in my experience.

Just had a turbo xs FMIC fitted to mine.Had it remapped with hardly any lag noticeable...Got given back,the front section where the FMIC fits.Dont think this was cut off-has just been unbolted.Little bit of trimming to the body work is all.Before you do the job,lack of space means you may have to fit an induction kit.Be careful what you fit coz once the MAF goes,doesn't clean like the type fitted to a classic.Depending on your mods,have both a HKS super powerflow induction kit and an Apexi kit for sale,as well as Bailey DV12 BOV in near future....

I personally went for the Apexi intake kit, but if it's any good or not I don't know. Bob R had to rescale the MAF and fiddle about with it for a while for it to measure correctly.
