Intercooler setup need help

Hey I was wondering whats the best setup for the fd to go, FMIC or V-mount? I'm just wondering basically whats the advantages and disadvantages of both and what power output they can make. Thanks

If ducted properly a V mount should run cooler as the IC is not blocking the rad.

That said, I run an FMIC

There is already alot of info on this already man. Also, one particular setup doesn't make a particular amount of power. If I were you, I'd research the benefits of vmic, fmic and look into water injection.
