[QUOTE="Mwilbur516, post: 194930, member: 784"] OP, how many seconds of lag are you experiencing? I went out this afternoon and did a little "test" in my truck. After I got up to operating temps I came to a complete stop and using my right foot only, lifted from the brake and hammered the go peddle. I had about 1.5 seconds of absolute go nowhere before the turbo hit, after that the rear end broke loose in a cloud of smoke with a beautiful duet of screaming tires and 4" straight pipe growl. Now lifting and rolling into the throttle eliminated the turbo lag and got me moving much quicker due to the lack of tire spin. I will say that after talking to a lot of guys with tuned FICM's, I will be paying PHP a visit soon to get a tune on mine. It seems that the tuned FICM's only add about 35-40 rwhp, but EVERYONE I've talked to that has a tuned FICM has said that throttle response is much quicker an smoother. [/QUOTE]
