I went from an ARC 70mm cooler to the new plazmaman 76mm 800hp gtr unit

Very good but of gear

How much power were you running with the arc? Any difference at all since the change?

When I spoke to plazmaman they said it's top quality and assured me it'll easily flow over 400rwkw.

I have an arc Im hopeing for over 400 kw I cant see it been the issue maybee the exhaust ??

Ah okay!! This is the only thing that seems to hold us back. My 70mm trust isn't the best of quality intercoolers.

Definitely not the exhaust it's a new Racepace item proven to flow much more than I'm making currently

260 at 10.85 with a very aggressive ramp rate, dialed in for midrange.

3.5 or 4 inch Racepace exhaust?

Ah okay, I see. I'll look into cams too then. You're running the custom ones yeh?

It's 3.5 inch, I know it won't flow much more than 400kw but should get close to it.

Yeah, but anyone can buy them. You won't be able to fit them without the relief in head been done for the cam lobe.

Who is tuning it? How much boost are you running? Did you get the Racepace front pipes too?

Got a photo of your graph?

Chris at Racepace is tuning it, everything's been done there on the car. No not the front pipes, they modified my apexi ones to suit the rest of the system. I think it's running 20psi. I'll find a graph and put it up

425 rwkw with a china core here, 600x300x76

also have air temp sensor straight out of the turbo outlet as well as OEM one in rb26 manifold. can compare the two, have seen a peak of 150deg C out the turbo with 40deg going into the engine at the same time. the core works

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
