Im pretty sure with the bulge in the gt4 hood ill be putting on i may be able to retro fit a 3s topmount ic on to my 5sfte.

My question is, considering i only use my car for street driving how much HP would i loss if i went from a FMIC to a TMIC?

I figured a tmic with "toyota twin entry turbo" will look even more stock then the IC piping i have on it.

btw im only giong to be running 10psi daily and would run no higher then 12psi if i had to.

what do u guys think?

very BAD idea

the topmount air to air is totally useless in our car. even with the gt4 hood. there is no scoop to draw cold air in to cool the ic. i drove my car with the topmount for about a week after my swap, it was horrible. keep your fmic.
