Do Not run meth without a tune.

you would just be wasting it and risking your engine.

He has a tune for meth. His question is can he run a fmic without a tune for a fmic.

Asks Chris@XX... I know you will not have an issue on the FMIC with the pump tune... the Meth tune you should ask first.

howboutthemapplz - Thanks. Your car is coming really nicely, and quick too.

Adam - Why not? I know a bunch of people that ran on a FMIC and were fine, just a lil laggy. I won't boost, just put around town if I have to.

IIRC, i THINK crewchief drove with a FMIC and a stg 2 OTS map, ask him what he used..

i THINK it was OTS stg 2. i wouldnt boost. my tuner is emailing me a map to limp it out for him to have his way with it. this saturday

Yah I wouldn't boost high at all or barely any if the FMIC was in. I just wanted to know if it was ok to drive around, and if the Meth "was" hooked up, would it hurt anything.

I believe my tail light tint is somewhere between 30-35%.

Update on the STi:

Thanks to the wonderful customer service and price of EDO Performance, I will be placing my order with them for the ZeroSports Shift boot (black with the red stiching) this week, and maybe another part for my SZ55 install. I am getting closer!

Update on the WRX:

Thanks to Kiwi Ian and Delvin for helping me fix my fuel leak and wheel bearing. Apparently, I was leaking fuel onto the engine block which caused a strong smell of gas, when I opened the hood, you could see blue'ish smoke where the gas was burning. Yah thank GOD I didn't catch on fire. There are 3 rubber hoses (small in length), one of them was a lil worn out and had a small leak when it was really cold out. Delvin and I replaced all three rubber fuel lines, while Kiwi Ian went to town on the wheel bearing. It sucks because inorder to change those 3 rubber fuel lines, you have to take the entire intake manifold off! Should of done TGV's and turbo inlet huh? Nah, its only a DD.

Today, PartySTi and I are going to RED out my radio in the STi, should only take about 10-15 mins. I gotta mod the STi somehow, I miss it too much!
