i have a pace double size fitted whats the max hp i could get out of this

thanks peeps

 

18 psi really depending on fuelling , probably push around 190-200hp before the temps bring it down

 

Agreed, was going to say 18psi myself

 

it depends on ur engine. One with a big turbo and a good head would probably goto 240hp - u cant measure power in terms of intercooler.

 

but boost pressure

 

thanks 4 the feed back

the spec is
late 2l zetec bottom end with cosworth rods and pistons arp bolts lightend fly wheel. fiesta turbo head piper 285t2 cam double valve springs fiesta turbo inlet manifold cozzie throttle houseing green injectors 3 bar map sensor group a coil l6ecu with piggy back mongose exhaust hybrid turbo lets see how long gear box last

 

ditch the double size FFS lol
GRS cooler will do you well

 

im worried about over heating problems

 

get 2x10in kenlowe fans to go with it and an 82 degree thermostat then you WON'T have any problems

 

What is the number on that 82 degree thermostat?

 

meaning?
Speak to Christian @ APT he can sell ya one cheap

 

hi
just after the phone number or email/website for ATP, could do with one of those thermostats.
also im running a solid 1.4bar (21psi) and i have a pace double capacity and to be honest, its pants!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

.on that subject, has any one else got any good ideas on how to bring water temps down , ive got a swirl pot, bonnet lifters and im going to try this thermostat. i was going to disconect the water cooling from the turbo (its a stage 3 t3) but will it cause any really rapid wear or instant falire. 9im not bothered if it reduces its life a little bit)
cheers

 

i used to run the same Pace intercooler on my 1.8cvh and the ACT's were through the roof!!!! best thing i ever did was fit a GRS cooler,ACT NEVER goes above 34 now

 

Before u ask about water temps - u need to say where u are suffereing? Crusing on mway? Sitting in traffic?

 

sits at about half way in traffic (about the 'o') however when crusin (loadin it up every now and again it can fluctuate alot. if i put my foot down for a bit the needle starts heading for the red and can take about a mile to chill out. also when bommin round town the neddle varys from the top of the 'n' to near the bottom.
i have gota little bit of a missfire at full boost but even at 120mph without the missfire occouring it was at the top of the 'n'.

could a split header tank cause the temperature to rise due to fall in pressure?

i was going to disconnect the water feed to the turbo to drop temps as i cant see a little bit of water cooling a glowing red lump of metal.

help!!!!!!!
