Turkeylord Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Maybe I should sell my AVO before the value takes a dump... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dga Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Well I was trying really hard not to sell my Perrin once these came out, but by the look of that core, I'm fighting a loosing battle. I'm really looking forward to seeing those end tanks and the whole unit welded together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegacyDan Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I would switch from my turboxs fmic if this will work with my twinscroll JDM setup. I hope our little Hood scoops can provide enough flow for that big boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compsurge Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I've already bought one. Hopefully, you will take my money now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PtPixel Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 (edited) Mmmm that's heat exchanger porn for us process engineers! Matt, possibly a bit too early to tell but do you know of any Australian/New Zealand retailers that will be stocking the intercooler?

LegacyDan Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Probably early days on setting up international stockists, but I'm also interested in the answer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobyscoodle Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Ahh, now I'm depressed I had to pick up the PW, looks tiny sitting next to the GS core. Had to get something in the mean time to finish up my tune, but in the back of my mind I knew I'd be throwing away the transaction cost of switching to the GS a couple months later. And now I'm certain that will happen, oh well. This addiction ain't cheap. Looking good Matt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators BarManBean Posted May 2, 2014 Moderators Share Posted May 2, 2014 Hmmm...starting to think I was a fool for thinking I wouldn't be buying this when it comes out...

Nightmaresmk Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I wanted a FMIC but looking at this. I hope it fits the outbacks without the fitment issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cryo Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 wow, very nice....Thanks again for providing such a great and well thought out unit to the community. Its very nice to see company's still putting so much R&D into a product when its very obvious they could cut corners and get them out to market to gain more market share instead....Quality over all is something that's lost among many vendors these days.

dahoseman Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Why must you taunt me, Grimmspeed? I had no interest in replacing my TMIC, but I followed this thread just to watch the development and see what the final product looks like. After seeing that core and the production, I'm tempted to replace mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snm95ls Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Hmm. Definitely being added to the want list so far. Progress on this is looking great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimmSpeed Posted May 5, 2014 Author Share Posted May 5, 2014 Thank you all for being so supporting and understanding. When we're getting pressure from a lot of people to get this thing banged out, it's great to see so many of you willing to wait a bit longer than expected for the best possible product. We went old school to build a prototype with one of the pre-production cores today. I'll just leave these here. http://www.grimmspeed.com/content/images/tmic_subaru_08_proto1.jpg http://www.grimmspeed.com/content/images/tmic_subaru_08_proto2.jpg http://www.grimmspeed.com/content/images/tmic_subaru_08_proto3.jpg http://www.grimmspeed.com/content/images/tmic_subaru_08_proto4.jpg Matt Beenen Engineering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian3676 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 2 questions, I see in the pic there is a plug for a hole, is that a port for a temp sensor by chance for those of us running SD and aftermarket intake temp sensors? If not, is it possibly an option? Also, looks like the BOV does not really fit with the stock return hose, will that be fixed or what's the solution for that?

GrimmSpeed Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 Thanks guys! 2 questions, I see in the pic there is a plug for a hole, is that a port for a temp sensor by chance for those of us running SD and aftermarket intake temp sensors? If not, is it possibly an option? Also, looks like the BOV does not really fit with the stock return hose, will that be fixed or what's the solution for that? Yes, we tapped both end tanks so that we can use pressure traducers and temperature probes to log those values during testing. We've talked about tapping holes for IAT sensors, water meth nozzles, etc, but it's most likely that we'll provide a recommended location for you to drill and tap it yourself, since people need a variety of different thread types. It's not out of the question just yet though, so I'll bring it back up with the team to see if anybody has fresh solutions. And yes, we definitely have a solution to get the stock BPV hose to fit the altered location of the BPV itself. It's most likely that we'll add a simple, subtle extension instead of replacing the entire hose to ease the installation. The stock hose is plenty good for the purpose that it serves, so we'll just help you re-use that. It'll look sharp, don't worry.
