I have the opertunity to get a charge cooler to put on my sapph, remote boot mounted tank etc.

As I've got a RS500 size I/C, is it worth getting?

Before you ask I don't have an ACT gauge, but is a 500 I/C good enough on its own or is the CC just going to be overkill?

CC's don't seem to get used much on cossies, is it due to the price?

 

my rs500 size ic very rarely sees over 35degrees on wot full boost!

 

did you read the test in the latest performance ford mag. all the IC where very good.

 

Worth it for a quarter mile car maybe.

For a road or track car not I'd say

 

I got an Apex performance prototype I/C and that was not tested!!!

 

overkill if you ask me

 

never heard of it. do you have a pic of it

 

No pics, Bren used to be a strong user of the RS BB a couple of years ago, he had it made and when he moved on to Nissans I bought it.

Does the job fine, fits good.

 

If it was cheap then it can only do good and no harm

But cossie chargecoolers are pretty fookin tiny so cant see them having a big effect anyhow

 

aparently there is an alloy tank to go in the boot so heat soak won't be a problem.

I'll have a look monday and see what its about.

I got the bloke a cracking deal on a 377hp fully rebuilt engine, bling, samco, T5 etc etc so I figure he owes me a favour!
