With a FMIC (which is IIRC a ~$1k mod?) I imagine further gains, but pain to take it to a shop, concerned about the warranty too (mine is a CPO), and then unmodding and selling the mod when selling the car a few years from now...
Also, you're saying that with a FMIC the temperature sensor gives fault? Super new with this, trying to understand

No no no, no faults. Turbos create heat as they compress the air to push into the engine. The higher the boost pressure the higher the air temp is. The stock intercooler is not very efficient at keeping intake air temps down with raised boost pressure.
