If you could pick 1 FMIC today...which would it be?

Cdn $ sucks now...but I want an FMIC...

Car is a simple bolton N54 with COBB...want to switch to the FMIC tune

I want to install it myself...more interested in ease of install, then max HP...

There are so many right now, I can't process them!

What would you buy if you had you had to spend your own hard earned money with the $hittty Cdn dollar today?

Thanks for your feedback...appreciated...

look for one in the forsale threads.. a lot of them are very good and all upgrades over stock. if you arent picky, save some of your hard earned money and buy used.

im running a HPF intercooler beacuse it was supposed to be the biggest core with the least amount of cutting. I love mine

Contemplating this myself. I have the Cobb Flash, run 94 Octane PetroCanada fuel all the time, and experiment with FMIC aggressive map on my stock FMIC, but in the winter time only. Stage 1 aggressive in the summer time when I track the car...

Im with your school of thought - ease of install is key.

Where you did get your HPF from, and for how much? Did you ever consider the VRSF 5inch or 7 inch FMIC's?

Vrsf 7". Can't beat the price & works great. Does require a bit of cutting.
