But still trying to figure out what his talking about myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still trying to figure out what his talking about myself. sorry mate, just got carried away, I see too many people leading others astray with their comments, we all like to believe what we have is the best or does a really good job, with out data most times we are just guessing unless the mod really transferred the car.The factory tuned ecu makes adjustments to keep things at a constant level, if the cooler allowed more air flow which would normally result in higher boost, then the ecu would adjust the wastegate to bring the boost back to the desired boost level, the same with air intake temps, the factory tuned ecu normally commands less boost at cooler temps to keep the power at a constant level, that is why with a stock car the boost will vary but the performance normally remains quite constant (with in reason)At some stage their will be a noobie come along and read some of the incorrect comments and then head down the wrong path with their mods. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impellor Member 835 Member For: 14y 5m 22d Gender: Not Telling Posted 26/01/13 09:31 AM Share Posted 26/01/13 09:31 AM I was under the impression that an intercooler was a heatsink. And that the bigger the heatsink the better. I am of the firm belief that the Monza cooler is better than a stock cooler. But I am now also a firm believer that the F6 cooler is better than the Monza. But I think the Monza cooler is a good cheap upgrade when one is sticking their toe in the water. I'm sure we can all agree that it's not a step backwards from a stock BA/BF XR6T aftercooler. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
