question is...street car or track car.


me personally...I don't really see the point of an FMIC on a street car except that it looks hot and you can draw more cops to your car.


I personally am a fan of larger TMIC's on street cars.

+1

Though I think the nice thing about the FMIC is you get less heat soak on the intercooler.

if you like the performance of the FMIC stick with it. The TMIC will give you a little better response, but you will get more heat soak. With the 18g a big TMIC is probably the best for overall power though.
