meh, can't coat them with SwainTech...not interested. I'd hate to drop something on them while working in the engine bay too. Neat display of what they can do but CF isn't always the answer.

So my vote is YES please put these into production! This would look very nice with my OBP! I wonder what the numbers would be on price and performance! Im curious to see how the CF cools versus steel or other FMIC's....this looks freakin sweet and would definitaly get one!

It's kinda hard to tell but this CF FMIC looks kinda smaller than most FMIC, do you know the dimensions? Or do you have a pic of another FMIC next to it?

The reason for carbon is the Thermal Properties that it has. It will not soak in heat like Aluminum or Steel. Keeping the air from heating back up as its going back into the engine bay.

Id rock it if I ever went to a front mount. I am betting it would cost a fortune though.

Also +1 for a TMIC

I would have to plumb that outside the car to show my true baller status.


Jeebus that will be a pricey item.
