FMIC - Yes or No?

I've spent the last couple of days searching the forced induction forum for input. I am debating whether to install a FMIC on my car. Here is my setup:

P600B (12lbs) w/ 2core intercooler
385 ci
65lb/hr injectors
street twin
12 bolt moser

My goal is to hit around 650-675 crank hp.
I know the current intercooler is not up to par. Should I install a FMIC or twin highflows? I don't mind spending the time and money for a combination that works.

What is involved in installing a FMIC? Bumper modifcations, piping?

Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Re: FMIC - Yes or No?

I think the bigger single FMIC is better, thats what I chose anyway after reading info on some of the faster cars. Thats what most of the big dogs are running. Some guys are also making big power with meth injection, Rich comes to mind in that category.

Re: FMIC - Yes or No?

you will have to ditch the wiper fluid resivour. I was going to cut out the part of the bumber cover and put a billet grill there to increase the airflow. but you dont have to.
