Is this possible? Water collecting inside the FMIC?
 
I'm just wondering if it is possible to get water collected in the FMIC with the GTM kit.

Hehe... just wondering because my coworkers saw a picture of my car without the bumper. They noticed the location of the filters and cautioned me about submersion and hydrolock. They think even if it's partial that water would collect on the bottom most pipes.

It can happen. Best way to clean it ou is drain as much as possible then wash with gasoline. This is also good practice if you have valve cover recirc fittings going to the turbo inlet. It will wash away any oil that will be trapped up in the intercooler. I would do this as a yearly thing on my old Eclipse Spyder.
