The difference between our cars is mines a hobby, something to piss about with when i have time and yours a professional vehicle challenging for a title so like comparing a 205 GTI to a T16.
My topfeed cooler showed 1.2 degree increase over ambient after multiple runs
Lol your 100% right Chris ! The spec r stuff is ok Had Pete make the stuff for Julian Godfrey's fiesta Rally Cross car intercooler in the front and the rad in the back had a massive 20 degree drop compared to the forge stuff he was using ! Then we tried the spec r rad/cooler in a 500 race car and found unless the car was run in clean air which only happens if your in front we started seeing water temps of 115 degrees and rapidly rising air temps up to 48 degrees , So put the standard 26 year old 500 cooler/rad back in it was spot on as the cooler was just too thick and needs a good bit a of ducting work and bumper modding to get more airflow through it ! So in a 500 bhp road fun car I agree with James
