Is this a good deal?
Im getting a Greddy V-Spec FMIC with Lower IC Piping for $549 and ipper IC from Greddy for $169
Good deal?
What are the benefits of an upgraded FMIC amd what should be done prior to this mod?
Secondly Im getting an ACT Street Clutch for $449. I don't need one rigt away, but do you think that price justifies a purchase and hold?

The LICP and UCIP can provide some hp gains. But if ur using the stock turbo then u dont need a FMIC change. You only need a FMIC if ur running a bigger turbo or running the stock turbo to the limit wit racing gas and etc.
After seeing ur list.. i would get cams and get a tune.

I will eventually go with a Bigger Turbo, but for that price is it worth it to get the FMIC? Waht does it list for?

I don't think you'll see that great of gains from the UICP upgrade though, from what I've been told it's really not all that restrictive, it's the lower one that's really bad.
