    they also require correct oil flow, many of the air to oil coolers are too small and restrict flow

    He was talking about the car being sluggish, if cam timing is adjusted there can be more power for the same amount of throttle opening so the car can feel more responsive

    any radiator, cooler etc is technically called a heat exchanger
  4. ratter
    run the one you have, it's the best option
  5. ratter
    PWR do a replacement ZF heat exchanger kit which is still oil to water, they also do oil to air coolers which can be used
  6. ratter
    so torque has nothing to do with throttle response?
  7. ratter
    as mentioned, oil to air will never milkshake, it can't but another thing to remember is almost every automatic car ever made uses a water to oil cooler, it seems to be mainly late model fords that have the issues, although I did one years ago on an Golf

    no one has mentioned cam timing

    for it to weld itself it needs heat, heat from slipping

    both are related, you need wheelspeed

    lowering timing affects boost
  12. ratter
    yes you should

    have no idea about what brand of clutch you have but many suppliers are rating clutches by power, this is a theoretical number but would be based on clamping pressure, not a number that means it is indestructible below that power level, anything can be broken if you try hard enough

    they have plenty of happy customers but as usual the squeaky wheel makes the most noise so we hear more about cars with issues

    Ford failed in Australia???

    we have ported GTX's that can control boost below 16 psi, even when using 4" exhausts and free flowing intakes, I think you just need to find another shop that can port it better
  17. ratter
    depending on exchanger price but we could have done that for possibly less than $800 assuming the oil leak was from the wiring sleeve

    bring everything down that you have and we'll have a look, if there's going to be any messing around we stick to original plan
  19. ratter
    also, if it happens to go missing, please do not look under Bels bonnet

    bring it down with you with the actuator bracket etc, we'll dummy fit it to a housing and see if it works, you'll also need a 4" to 4" hose, not a 4 to 3

    Monday night, should not be an issue assuming things go right, but don't want to be responsible for you missing a deadline and the dyno is already booked for Tuesday. I have not had 1 turbo supplied to us by the customer that fitted straight on, there is always something that holds us up, whether it's the actuator bracket or intake pipe etc, I would rather get it on now while you are down though
  22. ratter
    actually can you come down earlier?
  23. ratter
    what time tues night?
  24. ratter
    give you a call??? I spoke to you just the other day, that's about all I can handle in 1 week I was not at work today or tomorrow, The tune will need to be changed when it is fitted so we can not do a before and after comparison as the boost will remain constant, we need to change it to suit the new required boost level. Can we some how get more time with the car than what we have originally allowed?

    according to my local dealer, there are 4 different heat exchangers and vary in price from just under $200 to high $200
