    I don't know if I can ask these questions here, but I figured since you are a vendor here... what better place to ask.

    So I've been eyeing this FMIC for awhile now. I saw someone who had one and I loved how the piping comes up through the gap where the SRI usually sits. It turns out that if I wanted to get this setup I would probably need to get the top mounted SRI (which is pretty unique) or get a custom SRI. The person who has this top mounted SRI has told me he likes it, but I have some concerns.

    My current SRI is a JBR that I got used from someone at a great price (its this one http://www.jamesbaroneracing.com/sh...ct_info&cPath=333_337_373_374&products_id=487).

    *Would you happen to know if your FMIC would work with my current SRI?

    *If it can't work... what info can you provide about your top mounted SRI?

    *Have you seen any reports of water issues? I'm just stating this because its sitting on top with the scoop leaving it completely open to rain/climate.

    *Is there any heat soak due to how the new SRI setup is sitting on top of the hot engine?

    My apologies for all of my questions, but I haven't been able to find any reviews online about this FMIC setup. I'm itching to try it out, but I want to make the most well informed decision possible.

    Post up a picture of how it looks installed in your engine bay. I will take a look at one of the cars in the shop and see how tight it would be with your SRI.

    I'll take a picture today. Sorry I didn't do it faster. Between me getting sick like a dog this week and still having to work... just haven't had the energy to even get on the web.

    I have the CS FMIC with the CS SRI and it clears just fine. Based on your JBR filter size, I think it might be close but it should clear with a little room left over

    The new piping has a little more clearance for the SRI/TIP. The attached image is with a 3.5" intake.
