My question is, why would you get an FMIC so early?

The person needs help with his car not to answer questions on his choice of upgrade path.

Any ideas?

What he said ^. Does it stop spooling, or does the engine not rev past 4k?

+3, explain what you mean EXACTLY. Is it like hitting the rev limiter, do you lose boost, do you hit a brick wall (fuel cut), or what?

And yes, your combination of mods is terrible.
