Dead Cheap Front Mount Intercoolers

[hanra]

Thank you. No thanks, I think ill head off to catch up on some sleep.

My opinion is that the Monza coolers look like crap and perform the same way. The end tanks look terrible and the thing doesn't cool well at all.

I don't need to change my opinion just because people here use that cooler.

I like it I like it a good bit of discussion on a topic that I thought was open and shut.

This also should be a talking point for people who have them and maybe ways to improve this so called lack of performance. I cant wait til someone cracks 400rwkw with one ill laugh at u blokes nocking it. Just wait it will happen if it hasnt already.

I don't think the problem is about it making power (300 rwkw) it's about it's ability to cool and work as an intercooler.

If you just wanted power, you could have just bought some 3" pipe and it would have the same ability to make power and probably the same ability to cool.

You were told that ETM had a cooler for sale which would have been 4 times the quality but less than twice what you paid.

At the end of the day you are happy with what you purchased and that is all that is important, but when you get your car tuned and it makes 300 rwkw on 1 hero run, but then gets blown away by a car that makes 250 rwkw, you may not think that it was worth it and have to spend more money getting a decent cooler.

Yes you got a bargain, did you get a good product, for stock applications it will be fine.

Pretty much the point I was trying to get across yesterday.

Now who wants a slice of the cake I'm making?

[hanra]

My personal experience with my ute, it made quite a few back to back dyno runs of 293-296rwkw whilst it was being tuned. Power didnt drop off as much as I had expected it to due to heat soak.

so who actually gas had this so called experiance where they are making half the power after a few runs due to heat soak this cake tastes like crap aaron????? hanra shows real experiance and making 300 ant bad if this is a dead set problem heat soak why dont any other coolers suffer this problem. There all made of aluminium yeh!
