How to make a Quick 14B Car?

[Gravy]

Ok, yes and no....

There is one style that has horrible flow, i'm not totaly here so i can't remember which is good, or bad. I got a 14 fin IC and i know with the SMIC i was heatsoaking on 75+ days and car drove like ass. After the FMIC install i got a nice 100+ day with no heatsoak and only a loss of 200 RPM spool up. Gears pull smother due to no timing pull, and due to a short route piping(Turbo straight to IC, then piped back up behind the headlight to the BOV) i'm getting no heatsoak, and cooler intake temps. Days i heatsoaked i checked the SMIC and it was VERY warm to the touch. One time i splashed water on it and it actually evaporated away faster then water splashed on the black body in 95* weather. Mind you, this was in the sun after being parked for 5 minutes to let the turbo cool down...

After the 90* streatch we had i managed to get the car out with the SQ FMIC on and after MANY 3rd gear and 4th gear pulls over 100 mph, along with several first and second pulls, neither got the FMIC warmer then the bumper.

I'm not saying a SQ is better then a $200-400 dollar larger FMIC, and i'd have to be on crack to say so. But, for $50 or less, you eliminate heatsoak and help lower AIT's. Again, not as good as a $400 IC, but when your on a budget build... you take what you can get.
