This is awsome for Street, Circut, Drag and Dyno.

It is a much superior than the ghetto front mounts people use.

Water is has the highest KJ/Mol heat resitstance.

You can have constant temps with no heatsoak.

You get inlet temprtures a couple of degrees above ambient on day to day driving or if you add a cold box (which is what i am going to do) then you can put dry ice or conventional ice and run bellow ambient tempretures, imagine on a Dyno doing 2 degree inlet temp when everyone else is getting 40+ on a hot summers day!

Same applies for the drags.

The reason you don't see many of these around is that people are too scared to use them. The top drag racers and dyno queens use them. And after instalation they are the same price as a FMIC.

What you pay for the core and all the extras you save in pipe length when you come to do your plumbing .. and that meams less lag!

Thanks for the quick reply, Iam very very interested in this cooler, and I am going down to my local mechanic dude tomorrow to ask him possible positions to mount that barrell.

I was thinking, why dont Japanese Tuning houses make thier own water to air coolers if they are better?

The one in the picture below is off the PWR website.

The one in the bed is the actual cooler, its a pretty bad picture, qulaity wise.

The ends are on there But i can have them removed for anyone who wants that. The bends were done by PWR to suit an RX3 Drag car. But it was never fitted.

Cheers

Sam

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
