[bazza s3]

Pro alloy, Forge, Neuspeed, ebay?!
Try Jabbasport, Awesome GTI, or Forge themselves.

Anybody fitted a FMIC to an A3 TDI?!?

Have been told that it should give a nice big spoonful of extra torque, but wondered if anybody had actually done it?

If anyone has fitted one to any other 1.9/2.0 TDi and had good/bad results would also be interested to hear their views.

We fit alot to the Ibiza FR's, great mod and as you say you got a nice bit of extra torque! Give me a shout if you want more info.

Bazza, give me a shout if you're after a price for a FMIC for your S3.

My Golf TDI150 had a FMIC as standard. Maybe worth looking to see whether an OEM VW FMIC will fit an A3

[DPM]

For the A3 guys, I quite like the look of the Seat Sport FMIC from the Ibiza.

Its £310 inc vat from your local seat dealer. so should be of good quality. I'm trying to find out what its measurements are. Looks like it might fit the A3?

 

[bazza s3]

if u find out if it does fit let me know

 

[HTC]

No good for the S3 as the inlet and outlet are on the same side.

 

[Teejay]

That looks enormous. Does the 2.0TDi have them both on the same side?

Damian, what dimensions is the one suitable for 8P 2.0TDi and how much from DPM?

 

[DPM]

We don't do a FMIC for the 2.0 TDi. Sorry.

 

[Teejay]

Do you do any TDi tuning parts?

 

[james0808]

Teejay why dont you make your own,its not very hard.

That looks GOOD, and hopefully makes a difference. Def a cost conscious way of doing it.

Just a Remap for the A3 2.0 TDi mate.

Excuse my ignorance, but how do you get extra power by fitting an FMIC? It added nowt to my S3 other than a nice noise and the ability to hold the power I had for longer.

They're a cooling device, nothing more. They keep your charged air cooler for longer, but that's about it. Unless the increases are measured with the placebo/wallet dyno.

 

[Teejay]

Directly an FMIC doesn't give you anything except a cooler intake temperature. Which might help on a track day in summer...

Indirectly they allow you to run silly amounts of boost and get the full potential from a remap, without melting the engine internals.

Oh and on a TDi it does give you more torque, but no more power, except with the conditions as expected above for a petrol turbo. I think this is because it basically allows denser air into the engine, and since a TDi doesn't have a throttle body it gets more of it, which means a cleaner burn and more torque (peak torque in a TDI at very low revs remember).
