Jus Jap Vs Hybrid Coolers

[Bo0oSt]

as the topic suggests guys im not going to be going past 200kw so just a quick questions as to which would be better bang for ur buck the just jap intercoolers or the hybrid ones...will there be any difference between the 2 interms of power gain or responce etc ?

basically just wondering if i would get a more noticeable power gain out of either one

[R31Nismoid]

not going past the stock turbo

doesnt matter.

whatever is cheaper

yeh fair enough but hmm the other guy said there would be no power gain i thought coolers meant colder denser air so extra power ?????????? pls explainnnn lol

[R31Nismoid]

You wont get a power increase *generally* speaking unless you increase boost, ECU, exhaust etc etc aswell.

Just changing the I/C on a stock setup will yield no gain.

As i said, if your keeping the stock turbo, dont even bother with some branded Jap kit.

Absolutely overpriced for the application

[Mid_Nite_R33]

i'd go for the cheap just jap ones for your application...

I've recently bought and installed the GKtech item. Good fit and a good deal.

yeah when I started I wa sonly aiming for 200rwkw...lol that didn't last long.

I use the GKtech kit for that reason and found it good for much more power...for the price and ur application I can't see you going wrong with that.

also as suggested, no point unless ur going to up the boost to what 10psi with the stockie...then its at its limit also...need a turbo upgrade...lol then the list goes on..

The Just Jap coolers have been in use for some time on cars pushing well over 300kw at the wheels without a problem.

Hybrid is nothing but a name, their intercoolers are essentially the same as the Just Jap bar and plate coolers.

Paying more for a Blitz intercooler for this application is a waste of money, especially when having such a conservative power target at 200kw.

[WazR32GTSt]

money doesn't always equal performance...

listen to everyone here mate.. just buy the justjap kit and you won't regret it

[Busky2k]

If you must, the GReddy M-Spec intercooler kits are around $700 so that would give you some piece of mind. At least you know the piping will fit up sweet.

[Bo0oSt]

okk sweet as ive made up my mind to go with GKtech over Jus Jap thanks everyone 4 the advise. nismoid feel free to delete the thread

thanks

$399 for a complete fmic kit is flippin' CHEAP!!!!

You honestly can't go wrong

[WazR32GTSt]

399 + 70 postage is the same price as the justjap ones, as their price includes delivery...

plus justjap is well known and delivers overnight

[siddr20]

^^ 70 bucks postage?? isnt that bit to high..

But i think those gteck kits are even cheaper now..

True. Chat to Greg at GKtech. He'll sort you out

[NathR32]

Good choice to go for the GKTECH kit. Good quality and Greg is a great bloke.

Also frieght will only be $30 as he lives in Victoria.

$430 for a full kit is an absolute bargain.
