1. what kind of power are you making? I am making 480awhp on a gt30r and I have a TurboXS fmic that does me just fine. Not too expensive~ $500-$600
2. Dynoflash I hear is good, but I have never done a mail-in personally... I had my AEM EMS tuned by Sean Ivey and I love it

Look up Mellon on this forum for the tune if you are using the stock ECU, as far as the FMIC goes, i would be careful with ebay stuff. I had a friend get a great deal on a bad FMIC. It arrived damaged. I know this is just one example about ebay, but IMO I would buy from a reliable shop or online with a company such as AMS or HKS or any of the others.

Try ETS. They have great products and beat almost any prices. I love my fmic from them. As far as a tune goes. Mellon, dynoflash, jestr all have great mail-in tunes from what I've read and experienced.

I say ETS also! I got the 3.5", but you can get the 3" one real cheap. Excellent quality and customer service.
