Correct the FMIC shouldnt have an effect either way on emissions. A VRSF intercooler would have the same tail pipe emissions and the Dinan. The CARB approval process isnt cheap though for vendors to go through. Thats why many dont go through the approval process. It just helps give it an extra bonus to stay emissions complaint.

As for being a Spearco intercooler, I havent heard that before.
I've read that all over the e90post forums. Regardless, the driver has an amazing build now!
