Curious, how big are the filters (size of the filter closest to the throttle body)?

Hate the look (it's ...ly). Anxious about the number. It should better make 20+whp to cover for the look. But the look can be improved. Any new development for C32 is

Sorry for the delay ladies and gents!!!!!

Now I know you aren't worried about the exterior of the car but here is how she currently sits outside:


Complete mod list consist of:
185mm ASP Pulley
Newest Revision of the Code3 supercharger Pulley
S600 Throttle Body with custom S/C Intake Plenum enhancing overall size
Custom intake filtered by dual BMC Carbon Dynamic Air Boxes
74LB injectors with upgraded fuel pump
3/4 inch Phenolic Spacer kit between intake plenums, supercharger and intercooler
Coolant Tank Reservoir with silly FMU writing to be revised (CNC Issues)
Custom Fluid MotorUnion headers with bullet merge 3/1 collectors
Custom Fluid MotorUnion 2.5 inch mid section supported by dual resonators "Y'ed" and stepped up to 3 1/2 inch rear section with two more resonators before the tips
Custom Fluid MotorUnion tune













I am having some trouble finding all of the images I am looking for right now, mainly some that I took with the entire exhaust (Headers to tips) layed out and complete on the ground! Regardless I will get as many images up as soon as possible.

If you guys have any questions feel free to get me direct via mike@fluidmotorunion.com

Thanks for looking guys!

Good point, moosejaw. Couple reasons I can think of: people in the past running an upper and a lower pulley on the M112K were running into severely lean AFRs at high load/rpm, given the limitations of the stock fuel system to support the required airflow. Looks like FMU has addressed this with an upgraded fueling system (larger injectors + fuel pump). The larger injectors approach has been attempted before, but AFAIK was never successfully paired with a well-calibrated tune to match. The other issue is that IIRC at these potential rpms the S/C is being pushed way past its optimal compressor-map area - not sure how well the stock IC can keep up, even with the cooling mods that FMU has installed.

To the best of my knowledge, this is the first M112K to successfully run a much larger TB, and successfully run larger injectors... allowing it to presumably run a stacked 185 + C3P setup while keeping safe AFRs. Needless to say, this is a really interesting build. I also look forward to seeing more of this project - including any dyno "baseline vs. current status" graphs.
