Default STI TMIC for a MY00

Hey all

Am thinking about getting a STI TMIC for my car. I am under the impression that the STI top mount for the MY00 is the same size as standard. Any suggestions on TM's that are larger that can be modified to fit the MY00 or are there some bolt ons available?

Search for STi TMIC. 01+ STi TMIC are alot bigger, handle more KW's and increase airflow by a fair bit. To get full benifits of the TMIC get a bigger scoop. Alot of threads on FMIC/TMIC stuff.

Ohh and they fit MY00's

Then again depends what your after, you can fit an after market Bar and Plate. MRT and PWR do a suitable product. Process West would be the pick of the bunch IMHO, I like their splitter, shows attention to detail.

Yeah most important part is having a good splitter.

No point having a nice big TMIC if the air is going straight over the top of it. When i put the STI version on mine, had to grabbed an 03+ STI Splitter, had to cut it a bit but all is sweet.
