ETS 2.5 FMIC or Ported IM/TB

Just trying to figure out my next mod I ran 12.2's last year and am really wanting to run 11's. What do some of you guys think i should get first to knock off 2 tenths if i even can . I have cams, tune, stock 9 turbo, TBE, ported BR exhaust manifold, and full ic piping kit.

I'd upgrade the FMIC first, but I assume you meant ETS 3.5" instead of 2.5"

I hope so!

Do the 3.5" first and then the Manifold and T/B.

INTERCOOLER! However, talk to Michael at ETS and get the Garrett 3.8" ETS Core. That is the best intercooler on the market. I have the ETS 3.8" Garrett intercooler and I might be willing to sell mine if you would like it. It is in perfect condition. I'm just looking into the 4.5" Garrett Core. lmk

^ well if the OP wants it you two will have to fight over it. I'm not sure how much I'm going to ask for it. It won't be off the car till the end of next weeked and who ever buys it would have to pay the shipping. I would assume around $500. I'll have to look at my reciept. I can't remember if I paid 600 or 700 for it. It only has 8k miles on it and in perfect condition.

^ the ETS Garrett 3.8" cools much better than the standard ETS 3.5". 25+hp has been seen a number of times. Some even more. The standard ETS 3.5" is $600 and you can get a larger and better core from me for 500+Shipping, lmk through pm. Back on topic and sorry for going off topic OP.
