    My current setup in sig, when i'm done with the FMIC install it will be a draw through, I'm using a Vortech Mini Race if it matters. I was wondering if I should spend the $100.00 on a Mafia extender before I get tuned or will my SCTX3 do the job just as well?

    Vortech V2 - V1 Interchangeable?

    I was going to trade my V2 SQ trim to someone for his V1 S trim, If we just exchange head units should they bolt up to our brackets respectively? I'm not going to do the trade if it's a PITA. Also is there any good questions to ask outside the normal ones to ensure the head unit is good?
