FMIC help

For my 2011 335i I've been consider the Cobb Stage 1+, which includes their FMIC. How would you guys compare the Cobb to the Wagner FMIC?

Thanks!

Depends on which Wagner FMIC but for the price of the Cobb, I'd most certainly consider the Wagner over it, especially the Evo II Comp.

Tons of better options out there. Just don't get anything from Cobb, nothing they have is worth it. Check out the VRSF stuff, it is some of the cheapest, but also works very well. AA/ER/Wagner/Mishimoto is good stuff, but costs more. Go visit the sites from the 2 guys that posted above me, both are great to deal with.

I am also looking at FMIC upgrade for my N54 and have come down to these two choices.
1. Wagner Evo 1
2. ETS

Both are onsale for under $600. I like to hear other's experience on these FMIC. ETS comes with silicones and pipe while Wagner is a step up using oem connectors. Any difference in performance between the two? I will be running Cobb stage 1+FMIC Map.

Hello,
Which ETS? they offer 2 different intercoolers.

Wagner EVO II > ETS 7" > Wagner EVO I > ETS 5"


That being said all 4 intercoolers are top notch
