    Possible Cheap Alternative to Aftermarket SMIC's from a R35 GTR

    If they flow enough for godzilla, possibly they are good enough for the 11 year old RS6...maybe bigger isn't always better. Can be found for very cheap on ebay and GTR forums. Something to consider.

    bigger isn't always better; what you gain in cooling power, you could lose in throttle lag. on my previous car ('91 Skyline GT-R), I swapped an FMIC rated to 1000hp out and put the stock one back in. lag was bad enough as it was.

    R35 GT-R SMICs may not be bad, if they fit. People seem pretty happy with Wagners.

    I think that width would be a problem
