FMIC for the win.
i tried a tyrolsport SMIC and it was not much better than a stock SMIC. heres a graph i made which shows the difference between the tyrol SMIC and an Allard FMIC, results speak for themselves:
both runs were at same ambient temp(they were a few degrees out but the figures were corrected according to ambient temp), same drive and same tune(vnt17B/pd150 nozzles/ ~190 BHP tune)
if you ask me, the SMIC is not well vented enough. i even tried an arch liner vent mod and a 4motion front valence to try and get more air to it but it did not make a difference.
FMIC FTW!
