Are you at a power level where you need an FMIC?

If no, then it's most likely not worth it!

As NS said, depends on your power goals. Not as necessary as some people are led to believe.

I opted for the 75mm APS CAIK.

There's some guy doing a group buy on APS kit in the Group Buy section.

I paid £195 from DSA. You WILL need a remap after fitting and should be kept off boost until that time.

Get a blitz panel filter and then one of these blitz covers. frees up the air flow, saves your maff and prevents heat soak.
