Yeah from what I have come across on s2ki it seems that 1psi loss is not much at all so your doing well there with the fmic, I wonder if the size of piping or possibly the psi level causes any fluctuations in total loss. Most don't run the fmic at stock boost levels so I wonder if the loss goes up as psi is increased? I have no experience there as I run with an AC on my kit.

generally the lower boost you run, the more you will lose. when i had a 7psi pulley with 2.5" piping fmic kit that basically took the same route as the inlinepro fmic kit, i only made 3psi max. people running similar setups with over 10psi generally lose no boost. 8-10psi generally lose 1psi. this is from my research on this forum.

to be honest. Every kit is different. Nothing is consistance with boost lose...from what ive read. I think the people who make custom FMIC setups lose the most..again from what ive read. Most people run big pipes and huge IC cores and that takes alot of air to fill, the UR kit doesnt really have super big pipes, and the IC core is kind of on the smaller side, which is a plus to me... I think.

Either way, Im satisfied with my UR FMIC...even though its made by flappy jaw canadians

well, i meant when you compare it to custom setups. Everybody seems to want to put the biggested and thickest intercooler on the front of their car. Like the Precision 600hp one, why do you need such a big intercooler when the supercharger unit itself cannot even come close to that power...

yes, sorry, i just laugh when i watch south park and the candians talk
