Silly Rabbit Motorsport SMIC

Today I got around to installing the Silly Rabbit Motorsport B5 S4 SMIC’s.  These have the RS4 sized inlet and outlet piping along with water/methanol bungs for use with the Aquamist injection nozzles.

The mounting tab on the top end tank is a nice feature for holding the intercooler steady.

For now I’ll be using them without the shrouds.  I have them but decided to hold off installing them until later.

Aquamist Flow Sensor 806-428H

So that I can measure close to the true water flow from the BoostManager system I am installing this Aquamist flow sensor, part no. 806-428H, that I’ll monitor via the 0-5V output voltage from.

Just past the flow sensor are the Aquamist nozzles, with checkvalves, that inject near the inlets of the APR bipipes.

SRM SMIC Install

Started installing the Silly Rabbit Motorsport intercoolers.  Didn’t get far before I discovered that the standard RS4 intercooler hoses do not work with the SRM IC’s with RS4 inlet and outlet pipes.

Much too long.  Have an order in with SRM for a set of the hoses that they sell.  I’d obtained these SMIC’s very early in the product lifecycle and the hoses through SRM weren’t available at that time.
