Default FMIC kit

I hope this isnt a repost, but I found this kit while searching for installation of a FMIC. According to the description it has everything to install. It doesnt specify if the bumber needs to be moddified though. The price seems fair...

The bumper has to be trimmed inside to make that fit on a stock bumper.

You don't say what you are running?

I suspect for a stock K03 or even a chipped K03 you could lose power with a FMIC compared to stock. If you are running high flow at high pressures then a FMIC would likely help. A stock K03 does neither.
