Default No problem

Eurocodetuning is coming out with one soon that I was gonna get but I'm too impatient!

David has actually helped me out alot and I got a feeling their FMIC is gonna be sick, his car is a beast with that GT28RS kit, I think he may be pushing the envelope even more. If you're looking for one you may wanna call him and see how much he's gonna charge for it.

Default Wait.... listen. That's the sound of OE Dual IC supporters silenced.

I kid, I kid.... It's ok, but I have just never felt that it could compare to an FMIC. I still think most of the negative comments are because of the visual dislike for the FMIC core and how most are such an "eye sore". But yours looks very nice.

Thanks for the write up. Good job. Very helpful and informative.

Repost tomorrow for day crowd.

Actually, I have the ATP FMIC and you do need to cut or your lowers will break their mounting hardwa

Default I still prefer the duals. But after having looked at the RS6 and 225 I'm definitely...

...going to put vents into the wheel wells just like Audi engineers did in both cases. I wonder if DLSJ5's tests would've been the same for both if the vents/louvers were there.
