Message	fascia was off? That is the delta (change) in inlet pressure versus outlet pressure... also, you should monitor the temperature of the feed air off the turbine while you do max rpm runs, and monitor the temp at the backside of the IC to see the temperature drop. Do like 3 or 4 hard pulls, monitoring the temp both times. If the pressure drop is more than 2 psi, maybe a FMIC isn't worth it for these cars. People advertise FMIC's and Stealin' IC's, but our tests show that the stock IC's have a 1.5-2 psi drop while the Stillen was 2psi... not much change overall with pressure drop, although it took longer to heatsoak the stillen IC.
