No they make excellent products. Mine was a personal choice, I don't care for the way they treat people and their attitude.

the UR FMIC isn't on that list.
What size you get will be based on your plans... if you're going with a turbo upgrade then you want a larger core. Otherwise a 3.5" seems to be the best bang for the buck.

Even with an upgraded turbo a 3.5" will be ok. But if you KNOW you'll be going new turbo then get a 4"+ FMIC.

Just wanted to say hi to all the AR peeps out there. I'll be moving there in the first week of June. Looking fwd to see/meet you all!
BTW what kinda premium gas is there in Little Rock? I will most likely be moving to Cabot and wondering if I will be ok since I will be tuned on E85 but not sure if I have to get tuned on 93 or just retune my 91map?
thanks
Sergio

Sergio cool I live in Cabot as well. We have 93 but there is E85 about 15-20 mins away. If you have the ability to switch maps then its all good.

awesome, thanks for the help guys. I will have the map switch installed this Friday so that will help out a lot. How's the Evo community out there? I read the past few pages and I see that there aint much evos out there but it does sound like you all are pretty friendly,
