<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

not as much as I should have?

first hiccup no ems yet which means may or may not be running for sat and if it is no time for full tune.

second hiccup the thing only made 231rwkw ok ok its not a hiccup yep 231 rwkw's with only the cooler and cai it also had superb rwnm sarting the test at over 400rwnm peaking at 635rwnm and ending with over 400 again

for you d/d guys that's over 1300nm of tracive effort

cant wait for the ems pretzel youll be on that much of a hard that you wont be able to tie it into a pretzel

So what you're saying is got 231rwkws for only a cooler and cai, no exhaust, no computer mods, nothing??

Dave,

Yep, that's what it produced on the dyno !

Bear in mind this vehicle prior to the Cooler and CAI had a healthy 210 RWKW !

It did cause more frequent overboost (Or whatever is causing it) so this upgrade would possibly best be suited to modified ECU vehicles unless the overboost issue is resolved first (EMS is being fitted today!)

The vehicle will be run on Saturday so people can see the results for themselves.

Fantastic stuff guys

I was of the opinion that an intercooler does not add extra power, but infact assist's in pressure and temp drop?

After all these years of turbo cars am I wrong?

Good work lads

well jb if you remember pretzel's post in macka's shaker it made 227kw so in efect it only made 5-6 kw's lets say the cai isnt as good as the shaker and most of that would probibly be plumbing! the cooler though doe's give us better intake temps on the road

remember that the factory uses variable boost control so when it see's more boost due to better flow it reduces the the boost acordingly.

I have not got the ems's yet due to a delivery hiccup so I might try a mbc to control boost and see what sort of power we can get?
