Default FMIC

what are the benefits of billet endtanks, like on the evo motorsport fmic, vs cast endtanks? just trying to justify the extra money for this intercooler over the cheaper intercoolers that are coming out. thanks.

Default I don't know....

I have some cash, but I'm not sure what I want to do with it. I really want some new coilovers, but I want to wait for the ones I really want...the Bilstein PSS-9's. So now I'm looking at a FMIC or maybe a new bumper. I was thinking about wheels, but I don't want them until I get the coilovers. I'm open for suggestions. If I go the intercooler route, I'll probably wait for one of the ones coming out. I can't see spending the extra cash for the evo unit if it doesn't offer any particular advantage.
