[s-cars] FMIC Alternatives - ROT thoughts

[Joseph Pizzimenti]

Steve,
Having experienced virtually no persceptible lag with
my ricebox Evo at this point, I suggest that although
you may be able to get 30psi at the ECU right now, I
have to wonder how long before the apex you're hitting
the throttle to get there.  That's where pressure drop
comes into play in my world, and I believe what mlp is
suggesting also.

Joe, pushing 20psi and keeping the internals internal,
Pizzo
