It wasn't?? I've made a lot of money off that car so believe me it definitely gets raced. It's never once been in a car show so please don't mistake our demo car for my race car.
Again my discussion is for the R56 not my S14. I still stand by my point that both a nitrous bottle or a meth kit would have been both cheaper and resulted in a higher power gain. Since you're trying to justify your purchase continuing the convo doesn't get me anywhere but really re-read it all and give it a shot. If you still have the factory I/C I will paypal you $$ to pay for 3lbs of nitrous which is enough for several track nights if you can source a bottle to try it out. Me doing it won't convince you but you seeing for yourself will.
Prove me wrong. Take the car to the track and get a full pulls with the upgraded fmic then swap the factory unit on and make a pull and after that spray it down for 15s right before you hit the water pit. Do that before every single run and see what you get. Of course this needs to be done on the same night for consistency. I believe the factory i/c is fine but maybe it does need a bit of help after continuous runs at the track. If I'm wrong then I'm out $20-30 and if I'm right I'll save $600+ for not needing to upgrade because I can stand a tad bit of work the handful of times I'm at the drag strip and not on the street. You may not want to waste the time to test it but I think it would be worth finding out.
