Re: TD42 show me yur intake manifold.

I quite like the barrel idea too, been working on this but not for a TD 42. http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j212/FJ40_LOCKED_N_LOADED/Intercoolers/EPSON005.jpg I'd thought of something along those lines as well Matt. Potentially you could run massive boost pressures as a cylinder gives the ...

Re: TD42 show me yur intake manifold.

No you misunderstand Matt. http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk148/OzMikeH/splitplenumtaper.jpg Looking at this the gains would be more for saving space and been able to move the plenum, Performance gains would be minimal. Possibly improve response time if the TD has a T/B too. It all helps a ...

Re: SHOW US A PIC OF YOUR I\COOLER SETUP

P.S 3D Cad looks Niiiiiice :) Done in solidworks? I use Turbo CAD for Mac to draw and Gibbs Cam for the machining.I have solid works but prefer the simplicity of Turbo CAD. Gibbs Cam can take the 3D solid model to a finished part how ever complicated. http://www.gibbscam.com/news_events/index.php ...

Re: SHOW US A PIC OF YOUR I\COOLER SETUP

Cheers for the responses. I would say though the temp dropping like that could be for a few reasons. Mainly on setups with a boost switched pump it has a radiator full of ambient temperature water that starts getting fed into the cooler. Or water being misted onto the radiator prior to the run will ...

Yes we have been tested back to back against a PWR barrel on an engine dyno. By a very reputable UK engine builder. The results can be found on the patrol forum I think.

Anti Freeze Anti Boil is only required where you have an issue with freezing, Glycol is 30% less efficient than water at transferring heat, So if you can only run a suitable anti corrosion inhibitor.

A water wetter may aid heat transfer too.
