Ive done a search and very limited info.
Anyone install one on a R55?


The warranty is very good, and the dims are very close to OE just taller

What does the Mishimoto run price wise that you are looking at?

I was looking at these myself - £99 so about $150-160 usd? Would be good to see any results on one of these fitted

 

You'll have to have silicone connectors at the right angles. The drivers side connection is angled.

 

Rather affordable.... fitment is not correct but I trust one could arrange Samco's to fit.

I think the purpose built FMIC are certainly more expensive but hanging my FMIC off my hoses with a goofy fitment Im not digging.

I dont have the faculty to figure it out. Ill opt for a spec FMIC. Mishimoto lifetime warranty situation is really what caught my attention. Crash your car naf a FMIC they fix or repair it? So they say

 

This has probably been stated more times than not. It's not an issue with ANY of the FMIC on the market. If this was such an issue, you'd see a 200 page deep thread on this already, but no one, at least on my recollection has come out and blatantly said that their fmic has caused astronomical damage because it hung on their hoses.

I just don't understand the logic to this statement when there isn't anymore clamoring to say it f'd up their system.

But to save the money, by all means...try!

 

I just installed the nm delete tube. The factory hoses and very anemic clips were broke. The coolant line was totally hanging. I don't get your logic inferring having a FMIC let alone a coolant line hanging loosely is cool. Right on.👍🏻

Thanks for the constructive input
