| Revised from 10-24-06, now with the Stillen Sidemount Intercooler flowdata. 
I was expecting the Stillen intercoolers to flow more than they did. But there is a significant bottleneck in the inlet and outlet pipes as they are cast with the endtank housings. This was documented in Woody's Stillen Intercooler mod post. [ http://twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=technical&msg_id=1856855 ] Both the inlet and outlet are 1.620" inside diameter.
 The Sport-SMICs use aluminum pipe of 2.0" O.D. and an i.d. of 1.898", for a difference of 0.278"; more than a 1/4" difference in inside diameter of the port. 
Here is the HKS SMIC: i.d. of 1.740"
