I'm kinda wondering about dinan for FMIC and Intake. Lower cost or more bang for my buck is the AFe DCI and maybe HPF FMIC. Although there's a huge price difference and warranty, is there any reason why we shouldn't consider Dinan?

Sorry didn't mean to Threadjack. We should hang out soon since you work in Rockville.

Cost is one of the factors. Dinan is almost 1.5k, compare to others which are a bit cheaper.

Definitely, I'm in for hang out. A casual coffee meet somewhere in Rockville would be cool as well.

I'd say for FMIC go with either HPF, ETS, or Helix. I have the Helix FMIC and I love it!! As far as intakes go there are mixed reviews about dci, afe, or just keeping your stock airbox installed. The intake that did seem to generate alot of power was the Mr. 5 intake.

Done !!!



Only less than an hour to install the tail light, but it took me another 2 hours to recover the 8mm flare wrench, I dropped by accident. Urrgggg

The attempt to rescue failed, I couldn't get the wrench out of the tiny space next to pasenger side tail light. At the end, It slid deep inside and nowhere to be found.
