Default B5 FMIC's

SUp guys and gals. I just wanted some reviews on IC's. I NEED to get on as I can onlt take one or two good runs before I heatsoak my stocker. [:@] Car is fuggin fast, but needs to be more consistant. looks are important but not nearly as important as efficiency.

Apr is the best the fmic you can buy. Its kinda ugly tho i think and doesnt fit behind the stock bumper. I went with evo.

I have a GReddy. For the price ($650 shipped) it's not bad. But it was a complete pita to install.

Just so you know, there is 6.5" of airflow in the mouth of a stock bumper, most of the aftermarket fmic kits are designed for use with a bigger mouthed bumper, therefor anything that isnt getting airflow is gonna get very hot, esp jammed against the bumper support. This is why I went with the 24x6x3 spearco bar plate

Anyone have any experience with the FMIC's on Ebay...For 200 buck I don't think you will be getting anything good but maybe someone can tell me differnt. I've been having trouble finding a cost efficient FMIC and the only one I find is the overpriced APR...Any suggestions on websites to check?
