Washing car with fmic?

Hey guys, when I wash the car and stuff, should I try not to get any soap/water on the fmic, or will it not hurt it?

I wouldnt worry about it. Its just soap an water on aluminum. If you scrub it, I would be careful so that you dont dislodge anything.

It should be safe to wash. It'll be gettin nice and wet everytime you drive it in the rain anyways... Hmmm, sounds like my ex gf...

You'll be fine:)

Its no different than when you were washing your car with the side mount ;)

Wait a minute if you use your intercooler to wash the car it will scratch the paint!!! :sorry: :cwm27: :lol: :rofl: :icon16::rofl: :rofl:


Edit: 99 bannannas is not to bad stuff!! :naughty:

no difference, just don't put reall high pressure on the fins, they might bend.

Cool cool. I wasn't gonna really wash the IC at all. Just wanted to make sure if soap got on it, it would be fine. Thanks guys!

EDIT: Heh, now crunch and I have similar signature pictures lol

now someone has to catch up on what's under the signature picture ;)

off topic, are you noticing a performance loss with your fmic? Not trying to get at ya or anything, but I know the T25 has a damn hard time filling up all that space at higher rpm's, just curious if it's enough to be noticable to you. Does your boost drop off any sooner than it did before?

Well, I do notice that there is a little added lag before it fully spools now. But, when it does spool, it definately feels like there is a power increase. I haven't gotten a chance to do a hard run yet to check for boost dropping. But hey, $300 for all of it, I can deal with it until a turbo upgrade lol.

:iagree:
