Here in AZ the stock FMIC basically universally sucks. It's log was the first pull and it rose a good bit more than 15F and didn't even reach redline. I just did the comparison for my own curiosity really. I could already feel the difference in the 'butt dyno' Also for the idiots who claimed it was possible for it to be no better than stock. |

It's funny that a charge pipe is about the price of this IC. I'm going to have to get one. I like the fact that it doesn't block the radiator much more than the stock one.

Ive been wanting a charge pipe but not willing to pay $400+. I'm sure eventually Tiago will hook it up. Thanks Tiago for the great products at reasonable prices..

That charge pipe should be >150. I've been tempted to just weld one up myself. I'm pretty sure I would rather have the forge DV's then a BOV on my BMW.

It's much larger IMO. Also say more dense. Weighs over 2x stock. Due to higher density core I imagine. |

I have the Dinan FMIC, and it has 93% increase in volume over stock which means it can hold 93% more air over stock This is really important in the specs of a FMIC and its future capabilities when gettign turbo upgrade or turning up boost |

We were all out of stock of packing materials when the review sets arrived so we had to make due with what was available which resulted in a few bent fins. This isn't a quality issue, it was something our shipping department was responsible for. There are no "missing fins". All future orders will be packed with more/better materials to prevent this kind of thing.
