Why is that?

I have been using FETs in applications that require over 500A@36V and full stop burst... never was an issue.

Though most AEG mosfet for sale are quite on the cheap side...

You can easily setup a 600A FET setup (2x 320A N-FET + Hex driver) in the size a fuse takes. I did it on a G36 and it fitted where the fuse was. Not talking about electronic fire control, just the FET part. You could even add an aluminum plate on the FETs to cool them and bolt that inside the RIS.

Then again if programmed properly, the ECU should work as good... as long as the FETs used are strong enough.
