SMIC installed

[jurgs01]

So, would someone like to inform the newbs(and me ) which is better, SMIC or FMIC, and why, and which is more practical for an everyday street car. Also, I realize that the SMIC is a much easier install, but would it be able to maintain a good performance if running 12psi constant? And I'm assuming it's fine at 9psi, but if running 9psi, is there any danger of hitting the dreaded fuel cut? Thanks...if there is a thread somewhere already with such information, driect me to the link.

SMIC is good up to about 15+ psi (depending on the SMIC). I really think that a FMIC is more for the prestige of having an big fancy IC that everyone can see on our cars, but that's just opinion. Unless you are upgrading to Hiboost's GT30R conversion, then this will be just fine for our stock turbo or a GT28RS. The main worry by a lot of people is the IC not getting enough air to cool it because of it's location, but you will be fine unless you are drag racing (which could easily be cured by a DIY CO2 sprayer to maximize cooling). My plan does not include a FMIC for the car, and I am hoping for some pretty big HP numbers in the next year.
