Best FMIC?

Looking for a new FMIC, not too sure what to get. I have a couple friends with the Turbo XS but I don't want to get it just because they are using it and say it works. I don't have any plans on a turbo upgrade in the future, just want to go as far as I can with the stock turbo. Any suggestions?

Are you mostly going for looks since your not going to turbo up?

If yes then i would get the AMS FMIC, It looks bad a$$!!

You can get it without the logo from AMS, but why? AMS is world renowned for the fastest and best tuned EVO's... and it looks sick!

Search around, a lot of people say you don't need it...which is true. But some people say around the 350 whp mark an upgraded fmic might help out...and doing repeated pulls also starts to heat soak the intercooler, which is why ams recommends it especially if you do road racing.
