Message if you have big turbos like spirt 700's or HKS 2530's you will benifit from FMIC's (only ones like greddy 3 row) because they are thicker and the longer length equals more efficiency. For example

Greddy SMIC is 4.5 inch thick. So is the greddy 3 row. The greddy smic is same height as stock (almost) so is the greddy FMIC (each bank). Since they use the same core type and the FMIC is about 3 x wider it would make sense to assume that the greddy fmic is more efficient than the similar smic. Will there be a larger pressure drop for sure but thats why i said the fmic is better with bigger turbos only where efficiency is more critical than pressure drop. I have a 3 row on order - i will be testing it back to back for temps and pressure against the greddy smic.
