Our FMIC kit features the following:

• 22" x 11" x 3" high density bar and plate core
• CAD designed cast aluminum endtanks, with directional vanes on the hotside to reduce turbulence
• CNC machined, billet aluminum support bracket, engraved with our logo
• CNC machined, billet aluminum 2.5” turbo outlet adapter
• Mandrel bent, 2.5” aluminum hard piping from turbo outlet, to core and from core to throttle body
• CNC machined, billet aluminum MAP sensor bung
• 5 ply silicone couplers (six provided)
• 316 stainless steel t-bolt clamps (twelve provided)
• 316 stainless steel installation hardware (all inclusive)
• Plumbing available in Mirror Polished or Powder coated black

Both form and function are equally important to the team at Eurocode, because of this; we set out to build the most beautiful and top performing kit on the market. Computer aided design (CAD) and Stereolithography (SLA) was used throughout our modeling process. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) software provided us with the calculations to develop a cast aluminum endtank that is so efficient, the pressure drop and turbulence are among the most minimal we have seen. This efficiency has proven to reduce air intake temperatures (IATs) by as much as 35% in repeated full load runs. Reduction of IATs is crucial to performance of turbocharged engines; we have seen horsepower recovery in excess of 20WHP due to heat soak with APR stage II programming. Temperature recovery of our FMIC is incredible as well, allowing for stable IAT’s during multiple full load pulls.

The team at Eurocode found that the tiny 2” cast aluminum turbo outlet flange was a huge restriction to turbo output as well as spool time, because of this; we are including a 2.5” (over 60% larger) CNC machined billet aluminum outlet adapter. This adapter provides a smooth transition to our 2.5” mandrel bent aluminum hard piping.

Aesthetical highlights of our FMIC kit are the gorgeous CNC machined, billet aluminum support bracket, which allows the core to be suspended in free air from the factory crash bar. The brace is attached with rubber well nuts that provide both ease of installation and vibration dampening. Our 26” wide core (endtank to endtank) fills if the entire lower portion of the grill. Installation is a breeze with absolutely no cutting, trimming or welding.

Below you will find the IAT (Intake Air Temperature) changes during 5 consecutive 0-100mph runs. The car was tested with the stock intercooler - the only change was the EuroCode FMIC. As you can see in the graph labeled "Run 5", there is a difference of 38° Fahrenheit at the top of the run. All runs using the EuroCode FMIC display a consistent temperature behavior, while the OEM unit continues to climb through the roof. The highest temperature experienced during our torture test with the Eurocode was only 86°F vs. the OEM unit which reached an astonishing 124°F.

Run 1 through 4 (0-100mph)


Run 5 (0-100mph)


Dyno data using a dynapack hub dyno, APR Stage 2+ on 91oct fuel (EuroCode HFC, EuroCode Cat-Back 3", Carbonio Intake & stock intercooler) vs. the addition of a EuroCode FMIC to the modification list. Power shift to the left shows the efficiency of the turbo outlet adapter & the deletion of the factory sound box. The dyno charts also reveal the increase in HP and TQ output to the wheels throughout the power band. These goes hand in hand with the graphs above of the intake temperature showing stock intercooler vs. EuroCode Tuning FMIC.
