ECU Flash or FIC?

Hey guys i have a 2006 RS2.0 and was just wondering if anyone has a way to flash my ECU or if an AEM FIC would be worth purchasing. Currently I have a SKUNK2 exhaust and a TRD Intake....

I would go with the aem fic. You have more run to grow and you can find them for a descent price on here.

But if you don't have other mods in your futur. I wouldn't bother. You'll be fine.

I agree with the above..

OP you will not gain 30WHP from those mods no matter what ECU you purchase.
If that's as far as your power mods will ever go don't waste your money.
