Great FMIC, Looks very nice. Find out ifhe had to cut the Bumper support beam or remove it to fit a IC that size.


You can tell from the pics that the Bumper had to be cut. When you remove the stock black grill you can see it hanging down about 2 inches. You dont see it on his so im sure it was choped. Thats what i had to do for mine.
 
Unfortunantely I was unable to keep the bumper piece. I know that it is alot better and safer to have it. I dont drive this car alot and really like the way it looks. I will be taking some video tonight hopefully if it isnt raing really bad still. I love the bov sound. AMAZING is all I can say. Very different in my opinion. Has some pretty unique sounds in all different situations. If I had to do it again I would have it no other way. I will post the videos on here once I get them on a computer if you guys want. The turboXS sounds pretty cool.

Looking at the site, they do very nice work.

Justin(the owner) is a very cool guy.(cool) He is very straight forward. He will let you know if he doesnt feel comfortable doing a job. He does nothing but amazing quality work. I would reccomend him to anyone. Very good prices. He will stick with his initial quote to the end. Most shops unfortunantley will not. Nothing bad to say about any of his work. I am very happy with the job done. Thanks Justin. I will be seeing your very soon in the future for more business.

I will do the videos tomorrow during the day. Hopefully it wont be raining still.
 
I am kinda thinking about turning the boost up a little now. I have a decent mbc sitting here but I am not sure how it would turn out. I now have a decent amount of supportive mods (ghl TB exhaust, FMIC, and intake.) Not wanting to do alot. What do you guys think?????
 
You could probably up it to 8-9 maybe even 10 but don't push it too hard...with 10 you should really have some engine management.

Well I just sold my unichip with the intent of trading my car in. But I cant let it go. And now that I just had my FMIC done it looks like I am back in the game. Would the DSM afc do me any justice? Would it be a good purchase for me in the near future?
 
YES and YES! It's a great investment...check out the numbers Britt (122 Vega) put out with it with only very minor modifications. It's a great EMS for sure, also the MPI tuner is very popular but I don't know all that much about it.
 
to let everyone know..jmbperformance will not be selling a kit..i e-mailed him and asked his and he said as of rite now he cant. but he said if i traveled my way there he would be happy to setup a FMIC for me
