Installing A FMIC - Advice Req.

Post by Fastlane »

Hi guys,

Thinking of installing a FMIC.

Question is : how do you route the IC Piping without removing the battery tray?

Anyone have pics of their install?

the best solution is you still have to remove the tray... and get a smaller battery...

Was actually hoping not to remove tray.

I wonder if it can be done without removing the Battery and tray?!?

I took mine on the side of the battery , and there was no need to cut anything .

Thanks, guys, but I still have the original clutch fan on the motor.

Any other possible solutions.

If you need the fan there is no other solution bud.
Vut through the tray and eith run a thin battery or put it in the back.
