In Reply To That should put you FMIC haters to rest with those posted by MikeH(Twin GT35BB Incon Z) on July 28, 2003 at 05:29 PM

Message And I'm not a hater...I just don't think that MOST cars actually can effectively use them. On huge horsepower cars there are still even other options that can work as well or better though not all cars have these options (hence why we see FMICs on Mitsus and Supras where they DO work just fine).
