Saski Member 68 Member For: 16y 25d Posted 22/11/13 11:45 AM Author Share Posted 22/11/13 11:45 AM Blacktop test done tonight at Calder.Average MPH over 6 runs is 110.60 with just the capa cooler. Best ET. 12.86Previous runs with F6 cooler under 'similar conditions' (kept my timeslips) showed average MPH as 108 and best ET of 13.24I believe using an average for this comparison is more accurate than just ripping the best timeslip.So just the intercooler swap has not only improved cooling but also proved it on the track....without a need of a retune.I cant complain with the end results 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I installed a 800hp plazmaman intercooler a week ago on my stock fg with factory tune, honestly seems to go harder, gets a lot of WOT action and no lights have come on as of yet. Even managed to keep up decently with an e92 m3 today. Me thinks it goes a little quicker, will try and go out to drags and see if I can better my 12.8 Edited 10/01/14 12:01 PM by sct911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sct911 Member 848 Member For: 11y 11m 19d Gender: Male Posted 11/01/14 11:08 AM Share Posted 11/01/14 11:08 AM who knows, I still drive it hard, no lights have come on so far. Cold side is mixed piping .you gave me too many pipes and silicon hoses, it's confusing lol. Pipe number 4 is smaller than all other pipes, have no farking idea where number 10 goes, one of 12 or 13 silicon is smaller and only fits the smaller number 4 pipe, number 9 pipe doesnt fit because its made for aftermarket airbox :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the larger piping can affect the flow on these engines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
