every 4 age street corrola I have ever seen refuese to use frount mounts. I was watching a team rice video and I realized it. no one uses them there all off to the side. is there an explantaion, or is that just the style.

maybe they want the sleeper look?
Maybe they're smart enough to save money? On normal boost applications they say a SMIC is just as efficient if not more efficient because its not blocking your radiator. With that being said FMIC is still #1 for popularity not to mention a lot bigger. Which do you think would cost more?
its not more effeicent . no way in hell.
I doesnt make anysense. Id be way concearend about a high boost app with a ic mounted in the bay. hot air is much more dangerous then hot water.
I dont think its a sleeper look. its the weirdest thing, everyone has them. I cant figure it out.
oh well.

Ok, maybe
normal boost was a bad word. How about
low boost.
Haven't you noticed most factory boosted cars dont use FMIC? Its probably because they all hate themr ight? Dont even go with the SRT-4. That car is set for ricers and tuners. I think it would have a FMIC even if it wasn't turboed. Most low boost cars use a top mount or side mount. You can cool a few lbs of boost just fine and dandy. Ask the V8 guys. They are using twin turbos with dual side mounts like crazy. You dont need a HUGE FMIC to keep your system cool when you're on 6lbs of boost or so.
Who pimps out a Corrolla anyway?

The side mount is just easier to do. If you can get a @!#$load of power for less money, why not? They're just easier, that's why they're so popular.
