FMIC should be the first modification someone does as far as I'm concerned.

+1 especially if youre below the mason dixon. Far more impressed with what a good intercooler provides as opposed to downpipes. Stock intercooler is abysmal.

I'm far north of it and we regularly see mid 90s. I have a VRSF 7" too but keep delaying the install...

To note that I had, caltess dp, afe stage 2 intake, full exhaust system, and the VISHNU V5 tune prior adding the thing...

I am not sure what map, I just had the shop tune it with vishnu v5 and told em max boost lol... After doing my alpina flash tonight, next step is looking how the shop did my tune / upgrading the map if necessary


The FMIC reallly added that last bit that makes it awesome, even when launching im like way more WTF lol

THE VRSF 7" was a joke i got it like for 450 cad shipped... only 30$ more than the 5" so why not.

I will try to get you guys a pic in between today and tomorrow, doesnt show that much though in the bumper as it's not the m3 bumber

I think it has more to do with the stock one just being a total POS. I did not do logs but am pretty sure the stock IC could not handle Cobb Stage 1 aggressive in this vegas heat even with 3 gallon E85 mixed in. I only went with the 5" and it is a huge improvement and the stage 1+ map is
