FMIC on a 204 CXEB?

[Cog Head]

As per title…

Is it possible to fit a FMIC to a CXEB engine?

This would involve the removal of the engine mounted charge cooler, front mounted charge cooler radiator, associated pipework and water pump?

If it is possible (I’m sure it is) how much of a benefit would there be in terms of power & efficiency (thermal) as opposed to the stock water cooled system?

Many thanks.

I can't see any benefits, unless maybe if mapping to a very high power, beyond the cooling capability of the water cooled IC.
One thing you will get is more turbo lag, as a FMIC and hoses, would add considerable volume to the inlet tract.
