Message	Even if this is the case, at best there isn't any loss going to an FMIC on stock turbos. So at best, you have no loss, but no gain really either. So for $900-$1,200 someone has a mod that does nothing but "look good". Now, if we bought an exhaust that did nothing at all for $900, people would be outraged. I have no problem with the flip side point you could make which is: People spend $900 with body kits to make their car look good too. So yeah, I can see both sides of the coin. I just personally believe money can be better spent if staying with stock turbos. If you're out of things to do that actually DO help, by all means, blow some money to like your car that much more.
