Would it be almost the same as the AMS IC as in terms of gains??

I'd say no but close since it's slightly smaller.

But the price is greatly different.

I bought the Ultimate Racing FMIC this past summer and it did help a bit especially since it was so hot outside

i was running cosistant 13.9 in 90degree F weather with stock IC
after UR FMIC and about same tempurature outside, i was running consistant 13.7x
best was 13.700
soo close to 13.699 lol

I see that you have the UR catback exhaust.
How does yours sound?? Do you have resonator/mini muffler on yours?

i love it sounds perfect to me
I have the resonated catbcack, it sounds aggresive but not too loud
I roll by cops all the time and they don't even give me a 2nd look or anyting so thats good. I went to Mcdonalds the other day and the guy at the drivethru window was like damn your car sounds nice!

My lady friends in the back seat complain sometimes though
"your car is too loud" haha

I say if you carry a lot of passengers in the back seat (which i dont) then go with mini muffler

If its just you and your homeboy up front or something its perfect

Yeah I don't mind the loudness but I carry VIPs all the time... So it can't be loud... I want that deep sound not too different from stock.

For exhausts I'm leaning towards the HKS legamax system..
Wonder if anybody has the HKS on their cars here
