EWG=0+ hp. so, go with the FMIC and get it tuned. can maybe add 10+?

both will require custom tunes to see any gains.....

EWG will give a gain with a custom tune. Anything that allow the engine to breath better will potentially gain power.

I would not recommend a FMIC w/ a VF39.

Jake the best bang for the buck will be a meth kit.
Plan on getting a tune with either or though.
