Have a read of this.
Either stay with the WAIC (optimised) or get over it and go FMIC.

that was excactly what i was looking for ill leave the water cooler on for now and start on a slim front mount maybe only 200x80 sort of sizing lower and infront of the radiator and run some custom piping so i dont have to cut anything and spray it all black
[quote name='Marky said:
Go FMIC, I for the life of me can not feel the difference in response between a top and front mount on a suby and have driven more than enough of them
To make a top mount work good you need a big scoop
Big scoops on BC5\'s look rude
And then it still heat soaks like a heatsoakerdevice half the time anyway leaving you better off keeping the W2A cooler anyway
Just run like an evo intercooler or something - you can hide it easy, done and done
For arguments sake - a super SUUPER approximate guesstimate of volume of FMIC piping is about say half a cubic foot, incl the cooler.
If your turbo flows say 400cfm... we\'re talking (if it was a vacuum) about 0.2 of a second for it to "in theory" fill that space (working with about 6cfm moved per second)
Am I way off here?
true i have seen a few v8 scoops on bc5s and didnt like it not being offencive there just not my cup of tea thats why i went with this one its not overly agresive but its effective for cooling the case of the cooler were as the factory (lip) doesnt flow 2\10ths of fak all,
i always thought of the responce in that way and the people arguing about it were talking t51r lag time ect haha
cheers guysall questions have been answered
-
my current scoop was thinking along the lines on turn manifold get a top mount turn it upsidedown move radiator lower forward and make a v mount take time and effort but im fine with that or move the rad back 4 inch and put fmic there

im wanting to upgrade my water to air cooler on my bc5 running a td05 yellow injectors and microtech ecu,wanting to no whats going to be most effective
so im wanting and effiecent cooler dont really wanna do a front mount ( i think it looks kinda rude chopping up my bumper and the arguements over pipe length vs responce ect)
i did have a v4 cooler i think it was sti but the fire wall had to get a tap to fit and cut down throttle body on my last bc5
cheers for the input guys
