yeah with your 18g your puttin out almost just as much power as the stock turbo with a smic. with a big FMIC u could get around 100hp from it, possibly 150hp

Wow for once I agree with sebba, and I guess he isn't the dumbest person on here.[sm=headbang.gif]

lol yeah dude 150hp is wayyyyyyy too much. If he adds that FMIC he will be able to run higher psi and depending on how much psi he runs thats where the gain is. If i had to give a rough figure i would say about a gain of 30whp if he gets the piping and swaps in the FMIC.

RE: FMIC.....is it worth it?
yea i was pev running nonintercooled at 6psi and after adding the intercooler this summer i might have gained 10-15hp mabye,i was just able to increase the boost up to 8lbs i might be able to go higher but for now im just being safe. (02 lancer oz road race stage 1 intercooled turbo) Until i find the prob.(post: boost leak)But 150hp i didn't even gain that much from my whole kit.
