Default turboed escort gets FMIC

well have to give a huge shoot out to a few people first. one is turboguy84 off this forum. his misfortune of blowing his turbo up made it possible to get this aluminum gem for 190 shipped. then there is Jason a friend from childhood who is mainly a 4x4 guy but can do my welding when needed. i think this is the first import/sportcompact he has ever worked on besides his toyota and picking locks on customers cars (he is a locksmith).

i don't post here very often but i hope you like.

now for the pics..........

just pressure testing. prepaint FMIC outlet to t/b tube connection.

prepaint turbo to passengerside FMIC inlet.

blurry but a pic of my BOV mounted all nice.

driversside piping.

noght shot no pipes on.

installed with no bumper.

passengerside piping.


money shot!


hope you enjoy.

I'm not much of a ford person but that car has a unique attractive quality to it. I really dig it

What happened to the downpipe **** shot that is famed around here?

B16Drag - dyno is probly going to happen sooner or later. right now i know its quik it impresses all my buddies even those the one who owns an SRT-4.

SolFastD16 - thanks for the props. i'm just doing the same thing as everyone else just using a car no one else is.

quadnie - thanks for the props man. no downpipe **** shots sorry. tho when i was making mine it did pass thru my mind. LOL

AbaZ - as for where in washington. close enuf to you that you could see the car if you want. i'm about 15 minutes from everett. correct me if i'm wrong but that is where you are right?
