That is not an AMS Race fmic in fact its a knock version that went bad! I know I have a REAL AMS Race FMIC. Your top end tanks have an extra flange which the real version doesn't and the additional holes are on the opposite side its like in reverse from the real thing. Here's the link for comparison:

Also, you have Got boost intakes when they came with K&N filters Dave switched to Green filters after SEMA 2012. Those are not Boost logic.

Lastly, is that the cheap china exhaust, midpipe, and downpipes? The midpipe is going to have fitment issues just like the exhaust and those downpipes WILL CRACK and you have leaks! They look just like the crap SBD stuff that have the exact same issues.

Did you not know what you purchased? You have almost everything wrong (brand wise) and will have fitment issues when you go to install. The only good parts you purchased were the GBP intakes those are good quality as I used to have them.

THANKS *******! people like you really screw up forums because they think they know it all!!!

Just so you know this AMS fmic was one of the first ones they made before they redesigned it. and is on the car with no fitment issues just like the exhaust! Thanks for your CONCERN on my so called CHEAP parts. car is tuned by THE SHOP CT and puts down 600HP.

That IC looks beat to ****! I'll confirm with Eric if that is truely the case and to my understanding Tim sanders had the first AMS RACE fmic prototype and it looks nothing like that pile of crap you have. In fact the one I have was also one of the early models and it makes yours look like a pile of ****!

Its people like you that mislead others to think they have "said" parts which in reality you don't. Best example you stated you had boost logic intakes which you actually have gotboost intakes.

I never said your CHEAP parts wouldnt make power I just said there unreliable! Just watch its only a matter of time before those downpipes CRACK! I seen numerous horror stories same goes with the exhaust and midpipe due to **** welds and etc. These cheap parts aren't designed to last long they eventually fail over time and you are on borrowed time!

I agree if you can save money on mods do so wisely but going cheap on downpipes that cost what 200 bucks isn't doing you any favors. The installation of downpipes is PITA! You can go cheap on parts but that isn't one of them.

In addition 600hp is misleading! You didn't state whether its BHP or AWHP nor if it was on pump gas, race gas or E85. In addition, dyno numbers don't mean ****! You have to back it up with 1/4 mile times and your given DA for the track you did it at and I want to know your MPH as that's a true indicator of power. More importantly VBOX your 60-130 times as that also an indicator of what you really put down.

Jimmy has a 9.1@167 gtr not bad. But he really should be in the 8s since he's a shop and with all the mods he has. There not others that have gone quicker and faster for less with less. Just saying.....
