you may see a couple of hp, but not worth the money. Next on your list (actually it should be first) should be a complete 3" turboback exhaust and tune.

I've 'heard' that you can see like 15 whp gain with a LARGER FMIC...but experience a TORQUE LOSS...at the sametime...

Anyone know if this is true??

well the mods you just listed aren't in your signature like you asked us to look at If you have a tune, why is your next mod listed above a Dyno Flash? That is a tune....

I'd do cams first before the FMIC, they're cheaper and you'll gain more hp.

I was under the impression that the torque is the parameter that goes up more than anything else...

Buschur has claimed to remove the stock FMIC and bolt on their FMIC and pick up 15WHP if i'm not mistaken.
