WTB: A passenger SMIC

So wondering if anyone has a a passenger side SMIC for sale....if you have the rubber inlet and exit hoses it'd be appreciated as well.

Local shop wants $100 for one and I feel that's too much. Would have to be shipped to 95660 My friend has a discount/account with FedEx so you can use his acct# and ship to me @ no cost to you.

I'll search around other forums but figured I'd ask here first.

Acceleration always felt weird and I just adjusted to it. I wanna see how it feels with Sidemounts again. Also smog is coming up in October I believe so I kinda need to swap back to stock for that. (California FTL!)

you should just sell the apollo and upgrade your side mounts then so you don't have to deal with this BS again.


might i say.... we told you so?

You guys told me I'd have overheating issues which I don't (regardless or what Zlover says about me running hotter it's atleast not causing me to overheat) We'll see what happpens with regards to the Sidemounts being upgraded or not...just seeing if someone had one laying around. I'm not searching too hard.

overheating can FAR extend past what your stock temp gauge is telling you

^2nd. And it's not even May yet. The Apollo FMIC is detrimental to performance (it is a cosmetic mod) and that is flat out all there is to it.

I love my stillen side mounts. You should get these. When I first put these on the difference between stock and stillen was like night and hot day. Literally.

Then just save your money and don't worry about getting a stock unit. You'll love the stillen unit. You can also make a little bit of money by putting your Apollo FMIC on Ebay. Just a thought.

I live in California, we started emmisions and are the biggest ******** about it. Unless you know a smog technician every aftermarket part needs a CARB # (california air research board, i believe) Upgraded sidemounts tho would go un noticed. Also if/when I get BOV's they will be in the stock recirc location so they too will go unoticed unless he sits there revving it up super quick.
