the Supremepower FMIC fits great behind the stock bumper.

From what I hear...APR will not even make a FMIC for the stock bumper becuae it is "not worth it"

Default No it wont make A difference

it will make a huge one instead=P. When you put the FMIC on you will never have to worry about heat soak again. You car will run the same in just about any weather above 70 degrees.

Default no what they say is

they didnt want to make an inferior part that was to thin and caused pressure drop...or not edeaquate cooling....they wanted to make something more effecent...I personally respect a company that even though everyones screaming for one..wont put out a crpa product because tehy cn make money off of it...wait alittle wile and realse the better product...I respect that alot....(sorry for the spelling errors..I just woke up an dI still have sleap in my eyes)
