has any1 fitted one of these to there motor and how u rate them. Im in the middle of builing my mtr which is 330bhp for track days and wondering if its worth fitting.

 

In the process of fitting mine,was worth it when i asked that question on here m8.

 

i dont know how much difference it really makes but in fitting it i really cant see it hurting anything so having one isnt a bad thing

 

They do work well

Steve.

 

don't have one on my 410bhp track sapphire ran all year no probs just fit a big core alloy rad and spend your money on go faster bit's

 

just fitting mine , have seen my friends car running with an air tech one and the temp gauge doesnt go past halfway gary

 

yep made a big differance to mine

 

i have one i just cant fit it yet

 

I dunno wether to get a turbo cooler or a alley rad coz mine seems to get hot when on boost..

 

fit a big core alloy rad as I can't see the point in turbo coolers as they are so small the water is in there for no time at all so cant have that much of an effect on cooling

 

disagree on this one Philbert mate. I have a big rad core as do a couple of my mates who run decent power. They have all still had probs at some point, e.g. I had to slow up at Silverstone Ford Fair.

Temps are controlled much better with the turbo coller fitted as the superheated water normally just goes straight back into the tank then round again into the main system.

This way it goes back in with a good deal of heat knocked out of it. tbh I was suprised how well these worked in their cars and plan a custom one for my 500.

 

has any1 got pics of how it looks and how its plumped up.

 

Not the best pic

 

anymore pics boys

 

ehm i'd rather disconnect the whole watercooling to the turbo.
The only thing it does on trackdays. Is that it ads a lot of heat in the cooling system for no good reason. When driving ur car when it's on norm temp. The watercooling to turbo is useless. The oil can coop with it easely.
Just when ur finished, keep the car idling for a while to cool down the whole engine of the exessive heat. Even when the watercooling is plumbed in. (manual switch for the fan could be handy)

 

Im thinking of buying this one:

Anyone know if its anygood?

 

Here's my set up but not a good angle as everything is hiding behind the intercooler the top pipe on the header tank used to be in one piece returning hot water from the turbo but has now been chopped and the turbo cooler is inbetween I have alloy rad and fan conversion from pro alloy and running temperature is much better/cooler, that's as long as the thermo stat aint pissing around 4x4 stats are unrealiable

Thats the one im in the process of fitting m8.

 

just fitted airtec 1 on mine fitted perfectly not tried it yet but heard a lot of good things about them thats what made me fit 1 cheers

 

I've got one fitted and i think it does a very good job, i'll have to get some pics up for you. KEV............










No GRP A Coil for me.. And MA Developments custom loom

 

More pics of your car Pete careful Basky does'nt catch you

 

Better late than never pete,now where's basky i'm telling him you're posting more pix.

 

COONTSSSSSSSSSS


Try and help people and look what you get.........

 

Are they easy to fit?

 

15 mins to fit, and that includes making a cuppa

 

Pete,some cunts away with your amal valve m8.

 

i want to get one and i mentioned it to AVA in scotland and they said if your car runs cool as normal then its not worth it and is something else to go wrong.

they dont half look good though.

 

the pro alloy one is the one i fancy looks nice that pete
