The results will be dependant on how many fans will be working on the ICs. If there is only one then FMIC will have a hugh advantage, if there is 2 fans then this should be less.

Looks like cooling won't be a problem

I'm afraid I can't make it due to need to prepare for a Doni track day on 25/11 (in another car) so what's the procedure for passing my place on?

Undecided on whether to join the reserves list - RS4 exhaust and cats going on next week. Do I join in the dyno fun with you guys or have it done on the same dyno as I had it run on with just the remap for a real before and after?

My interest is any performance gain and if the boost/torque comes in earlier as I read can happen with a decat so perhaps has an effect with less restrictive cats.
