STREETUNIT TMIC

[thuglife2334]

i was reading on here about how everyone hates SURE and i was wondering if SURE and STREETUNIT the same thing. and if should should i even waste my time getting there TMIC. it is well priced but. you do get what u pay for. so should i just keep looking??

[Etipp98]

Keep looking, Corksport, Cp-e or ETS make a solid TMIC.

I'm more than happy with my streetunit tmic. There's a thread on here somewhere showing how much cooler it keeps BATs as compared to the cork sport tmic (someone tested both on the same car in the same temperature on the same stretch of road).

Found it

Street Unit vs. Corksport TMIC shootout complete

Better off buying in the for sale section than giving SU $320 on their 1 day sale.

Older ones had tabs snap off, they blamed installer error.

ETS, CP-E, and Corksport are all good MSF supporting vendors. Support the good team, not some egomaniac who sells shit parts and only cares about $, not the consumer.

Fuck SU. They make garbage.

I have a streetunit TMIC and I haven't had any issues with it at all. Feels like a solid piece of equipment to me.

I know that cp-e is having a pretty good black friday - sunday sale.....

[Gr@y_F0XXX]

Ooh everyone likes a black friday sale.

[[R]usty]

I have a CPE, it's an excellent high quality piece for a very reasonable price. Buy from a MSF supportive vendor. They care and know how to treat their customers.

[surebOOst]

OP...ETS has a sale going on right now! Go check out the website or pm @ETS Michael;

I went CXR front mount and meth for about the same price as a quality TMIC.

Cullen eat penises.

[thuglife2334]

nice well thanks for the info guys . yeah i will deff keep my eyes open on the MSF site for a used one. the place does have pretty good deals on stuff.

[almcbs]

ets shun!!!! or just go with the diy front mount. Will prob be around the same price

[thuglife2334]

i would do front mount. just not a fan of all the work that goes with it. and the relocating the washer bottle. just like the sound of a simple huge top mount

how are you liking the cxr kit? im just waiting on my pipes, already have the core. what kind of numbers are you pushing on it?

[almcbs]

hmm i dont think that you have to relocate the washer bottle. I could be mistaken about this because i have never done one though

[ms6mil]

with the ms6 you will have to relocate the reservoir if you get the cx kit. There is a 90s honda reservoir that others are getting and placing on the drivers side. I got a cx kit and treadstone TR8 for about $500.

Stay away from SU.

Seems to be well put together for what it is. I'm still working on my tune (as always) but I'm right around 300hp. My last VD showed exactly 290hp and 340ft.lb averaged over 3 runs. I'm now running 2psi more than I was though so the numbers should be closing in on 300/350.

[scubasteve711]

I picked up a used SU top mount and I can tell you its a bit of a bitch to get on... The hot side connection isn't quite angled right, and the brackets are a tight fit on it. i can see how people may have been snapping the brackets off. Thankfully mine isn't too bad in that department.

All be told though, they use a good core and crap it up by welding their brackets and hot side pipe to it with a lousy jig. If you find one for a deal used, I wouldn't hesitate to pick one up, because it does work pretty good for a TMIC, but after seeing an ETS in person, they are WAYYYYYY above and beyond in the quality department.

[thuglife2334]

i think i will prob go with a cxracing front mount. i just need to figure out where iam put this stupid washer bottle. thats the only thing holding me back. the CX kit is very well priced. i was reading on here you guys are using civic washer bottles on the driver side. thats a pretty sweet idea. but for the ppl not using them. are u guys putting them in the trunk?

[ms6mil]

Just curious if you have gotten internals yet...

3in DP question

[thuglife2334]

no not yet. i think iam do it all in one shot. internals and innercooler. just building up the wish list for Christmas lol

[ms6mil]

As you start accumulating parts, like DP, RMM, intercooler, and everything else, those internals should be at the top of your list.

No need to figure out what to do with the washer, find the threads of others who have successfully done it.

Good luck man.

[thuglife2334]

thanks man. and trust me. those internals are on the top..
