Default FMIC or TMIC

Hi everyone, I would like to ask you two question.

My car is a Impreza 07 WRX (hawkeye), actually with walbro fuel pump, 3 port soloneid and 3" full exhaust.

I have 2 questions,

1.- I doubt about the intercooler, I don't know if mount a FMIC or TMIC sti

2.- And the other question is that I don't know if must mount a BOV or DV, and which of them in each case

I will remap soon, so i need to decide what to do

Some help?


Thanks for everything

sti top mount an easy upgrade. if you go front mount you will have to lose air box.

At the moment I 'm not looking for a specific power so with the new remap it's enough for me at the moment.

But in the future maybe mount a big turbo and so everything is ready for it.

Fmic, even if on low power will still be better than tmic, as said above air box will have to be changed to induction.
Stick with a recirculating DV and all will need map tweeking.

FMIC will serve you better in a hotter climate and if you're well above sea level there.

Thanks for everything.

I'm searching for a complete kit to my model, but I'dont find it. Did you know someone?

And about the "stick" what is that?

It's better to stay with the Dv instead of a BOV? wich is recomended?
