What other mods have you got mate??

An FMIC is only needed after sorting out sxome much other needed mods to a scooby...not to mention it needs a remap or new ECU to make the most of it.On my old 320 bhp WRX it made it slightly more laggy but made it run a lot cooler inlet temp. wise and also a lot smoother.

Then don't bother with an FMIC matey..unless your running big ish power and have the new ECU to back it up it's a waste of money.

Your next step should be getting an uprated fuel pump and saving for the new ECU...and that ain't cheap BUT it's the only safe way.
