long story but its like this


if you do a fmic on my car MOST FMIC's for my car go like this

1 side turbo feeds air to the opposite intake manifold
as does the other and you have massive pressure drop.

thats why we came with 2 intercooler from factory.

plus most fin designs for a fmic go left to right. are airflow from are cars need a intercooler with a designed fins going up in down.


i know this sounds very weird and hard to under stand but ill try to show u


this is the ONLY FMIC that works RIGHT on the Z besides HKS . Now look how the fins go up and down and from this pic you cant see how the end tanks are balanced for PROPER airflow to both intakes.




now here is my SHITTY Apollo fmic when i installed it on my car.



See the diff??
