^^No difference in "lag" going to a fmic, maybe slightly less throttle response.

If he can beat 1599 SHIPPED, then I'm all on it. Already, well halfway linked up with a "dealer" (lisensed). A friend of a guy I met in Missouri. Just a guy "to help fellow subie owners get parts without getting raped"

I'm curious, what are the mechanics behind less throttle response with a FMIC?

More piping for the air to move through, it takes the air like .10032 seconds to travel with a tmic and .12005 or something with the usuall fmic. Its posted in one of the threads I follow on nasioc. To get more actual lag you would need a larger exhaust housing.

Yeah Tim, I garrantee he can beat that. Hes ex military and a good buddy of mine.

I found a guy who is selling his SMC meth kit for $330. Hopefully he doesn't go under me and sell it to someone else.
