Debating on next mod.
ok so heres what iv been continplating
i have a 2006 evo ix mr.
my birthday is coming up and im going to be falling into a large amount of money because of that and my graduation from highschool. yes im young. however im debating on what to do next to my car.
i really want to do the FMIC LICP and UICP. then again i also really want to do cams.
i was thinking i can save my self money by doing the Ic and piping first because they do not really require a tune and i could always juts eflash them for now. however. if i get the cams i would need them put in and tuned by Ivey wich could cost me a preety penny and then i would have to get the IC tuned again down the road.
so my question is should i do the intercooler first and wait for the cams. or should i just go for the power for now and go with the cams. im preety sure after installation of the cams theyll both be around the same price seeing that i can do the intercooler my self.
and also does anyone no what UICP works with the stock battery. and who also recomends just going with a smaller battery. iv seen a combo sold on the forum before for the AMS FMIC UCIP LICP and minibattery for 1200 and would love to fall into that sometime again.

If you haven't had a tune yet that would be your best option right now IMO. I would just get a tune now and then save up to do the fmic and cams all at once. With your mods the tune will make a big difference...moreso than the other options.
