Well after talking to the local fab guy...going to do both. Should run me a total of 500 for everything including installation. Might as well when labor is free.

Let me know if I can help you any further.
Jeff speaks the truth and is a great source to order which ever kit you go with.

So let me get this straight the maintenance of filling up the Meth tank is too much? Should I stop putting gas in my car then since it's too much maintenance? LOL sorry not trying to rag on anyone

I say BOTH..

FMIC vs Meth are two completely different things. Meth offers more power but it requires a thousand times more user involvement. There's something to be said about bolting something on and having it just improve the performance of the vehicle..

Anyway, I did JB4 -> AA DP's & AE exhaust -> AFE DCI -> Helix FMIC (on its way) and when I get the IC on the car, Meth is next. I just think it requires the most involvement, and there is maintenance required as simple as it is.

I am going to do that or some Helix turbos.. we shall see.

Since consistently running max boost around 14-16psi...should I start looking into upgrading charge pipe w/bov set up?
