Default Leaving a job and getting paid out for unused vacation + sick time = some nice mods coming........

Still deciding what those might be.........

Thinking maybe one or more of the following and any combination thereof:

FMIC
Samcos
DV relocation kit
Aquamist
BBK

Anyone know of anyone unloading a used BBK or FMIC? I'll check classifieds and ebay too.

Default No, No! Save your money! >

ha,ha, j/k! ;-)
Seriously, an FMIC is a nice way to spend money - skip the BBK.

Default That's a good list. I would rank them as follows:

FMIC
BBK
SFS DV relocation kit with IC and Intake
Aquamist

Of course, I also have all the above minus the Auqamist, so maybe it is the greatest thing since sliced bread, and I just don't know it. You should have a good reference living so near the only installation I know of, though ; )

Default Ummmmmm......I wish....

Me: "Hi, new boss....I know this is my first day and all, but do you think I could have Wednesday through next Tuesday off?"........

I think that would go over like a turd in a punch bowl.

Default I would go for the Full Samco's, then the FMIC. I really like my new FMIC, but>>>>>

i don't think that I would have felt the difference without the Fmic. Call me paul. If you don't have my number, let me know. I'd love to talk TTs, I always do.. Love ya man , see ya. JOSH

Default BBK by a long shot. They may only stop you 1-2 feet shorter than stock, but 1-2 feet

will save you a ton of money when you least expect it.

Besides you can beat and beat and beat on a set of Stoptechs at the track.

Also that extra 1-2 feet is very handy on one of these really good autox runs and needing to stop in the stop box without running over the cones.

Seriously, I would put BBK way up on any list. Stopping is alot more important in many ways than handling.

The FMIC looks cool, but imho only helps you mostly on autox days. And, the BBK will help you from crunching the FMIC.

Skip the aquamist and get your intake ported and/or injectors cleaned/matched.
