[s-cars] FMIC - provide real answwers

[Evan Levine]

Jump down his throat for considering doing WHAT to a UrS??? He said Front
mount intercooler. I don't care why he's doing it. That's not "bad" for a
UrS... so if you can't help the guy out why say anything at all. What is the
point in making fun of him because he likes the way an FMIC looks. Would I
do it for looks? No. Do I care that the top side of my car is fading to
primer gray? Not really. But who cares what he wants to do with his car,
especially when it's something half of us have done for the performance
benefit.

Brian, check out 034EFI, I thought they were selling an FMIC kit for around
1000-1200 these days.
