Stock R32 Gtr Cooler

[GTR 94]

hey guys i know its been forever and im gonna try get back online soon just flat out with work and moving and shit.

anyway im back and i just want to follow up on a post i posted a few months back which was somthing about "how much power will a standard GTR (R32) cooler hold" and to let everyone know im making 320RWKW with the standard cooler. not saying it is running efficantly but it is holding. main problems im finding is when turning the car off it takes a while for intake temp to come down untill you begin driving for 5 to 10 minutes. ok thats it. thanks guys any questions welcome.

hope to be at the next few cruisers.

Opinions differ, but most would agree that you are the upper limit or beyond of flow efficiency of the std cooler.

To put some science behind it isn't expensive or difficult, however. Get a cheap temp probe (or ideally 2) from somewhere like Jaycar and temporarily fit into the piping before and after the intercooler to see the efficiency. Cost me around $12 a couple of years ago from memory?

If you already have a PFC fitted, it is interesting to compare the air temp shown by the sensor on the plenum compared with the temp probe that you add. The plenum (factory) sensor generally reads high as it is quite short and is affected by plenum body temp as well as the air flowing through it (i.e. the plenum is hot from engine bay radiant heat).
