Default Srt-4 Fmic?

I recently acquired a FMIC off of a stock SRT-4 and was thinking of putting it on my second gen. Anyone know if it would fit?

I guess I should re-phrase my question... What is the largest intercooler that will fit onto a 2nd gen rx7 without cutting?

The front bumper. I want it to sit in between the frame rails and bumper support.

It should work, I've seen some pretty decent sized intercoolers in that spot. You will probably have to relocate a few things as well as run a cooling panel across the top. Some cutting for running the pipes will be involved, which is why I was asking what you meant by "cutting".

FWIW I'm pretty sure my Miata had a RX7 rad in it when I got it. I have an SRT-4 FMIC in mine and I had to trim away pretty much all of the excess metal on the sides of the radiator.

How many PSI are you running in your Miata?

Well........ more than 15 but less than 25, and the SRT4 fits just about perfect for anyone else interested in putting one on thier NA.
