yeah actually they customed my kit. I am sending my car back over there for them to do a little more work on it. there were things that i found that might make the kit fit better. all in all their manifold design is nice.

I would like to post some pictures but to be honest I dont know how? If you can help me I will, I tried looking at it last night but it was late and I gave up.
All I really have in my car right now is a t3 garret (8psi), 10:1 FMU, liquid to air intercooler (which I ran lots of ice before I ran it each time), racing beat exhaust, custom straight pipe (to eliminate 2nd cat., and 1st cat. is already gone), 1 stage colder spark plugs, ACT clutch, and some cheater slicks, and thats it for right now. It seems to be a good combo, but I am leaning out alittle still. thinking of get injectors, and a fuel pump, but not sure yet. (ohh I forgot and its lowered and rims, I like to keep it clean looking, JDM style.)
Ive been talking to FM alot lately, and they said they are in the process of making a piggy back computer that can have full control of fuel and timing. I hope they make it soon. I think they said its going to run like $800, but dont quote me.

Actually, I did buy the voltage clamp. When they sent it to me, they sent me instructions that were wrong. So thats the real reason I have been talking to them so much. Ken and I are working out the problems that were created by the mistakes that were given on the clamp. Well installing the clamp incorrectly caused some major problems. Real scary 
I thought I blew up my motor. It felt like I lost a cylinder......Well I'm rambling 
So Im guessing you have the FM kit? How do you like it?

Great! It pulls nice. Yeah, they e-mailed me an I reversed the wires. All is well now. I accually have one of the 1st 10 prototype kits from BEGI that has been slowly turned into a FM kit (pricewise) because of all the stuff I had to replace with parts from FM, Jotech, Autozone, and the likes.

Well, the instructions said to wire the pink wire to the o2 side of the harness and the yellow to the computer side. (which it should have been the opposite) And when I tested the clamp out of the car it wasnt giving out the right voltage that it was supposed to be preset at.
