you can use the fmic but the piping wont work. you will need to get some custom made.

pretty much. the core is useable but not the piping.

you could use the lower sections of both pipes because they both enter the engine bay at a pretty common, open location, and then just fabricate the upper pipes. probbaly cheaper just to fabricate the entire setup though

Hmm... The Star turbo is only a tad larger and sits a tad farther to the right I thought...

I'd guess you could use Star piping and just have to do minor fabrication where the piping meets the turbo...

thats what I was thinking too. I know the piping from the FMIC to the intake would work, the only pipe I had my doubts about would be from the turbo to the FMIC, but I figured that was close and would only require a slightly bigger silicon reducer to make work, but thats only in theory though
