as far as i knw the bottom end is standard but the group A head gasket and ported and polished head

thnks for the ideas boys keep them comin

cheers

Lower act's from the radtec and the fact that its thicker core.

 

PMSL...



Mine was shite...

Custom made radtec item.....its awesome

 

RS 500 Coolers can't be that shit if Rod runs one on his saph which I believe he does

 

Rod does top speed runs - air flow at 200mph is what ?

And uses NOS...which instantly cools charge close to zero...

Real test for coolers in on track IMHO

500 one is a used radiator piece of shit

 

Don't know of any decent track cars using behr rs500 coolers these days....

 

Dingy,

Look how shit condition the genuine one is in, and look how much smaller it is. Can you really compare the 2 fairly mate?

 

rich, comparision...

same day...

80 degree's from 500 one and 27 from radtec one....

Reason the 500 one looks bad cause on my top speed run it blew all the fins out LOL.....

but it was shite before that happened.

 

Furry muff Ding

ta for the reply

 

....why does everybody else need a t34 to get this power then...if ur right then "sound" but i dont think anyone else has heard of 360 out of a t3...nevermind 400....cos i'll sell my t38 and buy one of the little bastards back.....

 

It all fairness if the t3 was on race fuel it might make 400....

Pump 97 ron fuel you would be very lucky if a t34 powered car made 400bhp LOL

 

i c ur point pete the reason why i say tht is cos my mates cossie runnin a t34 and is doin about the same and we are both baffeld as to why we are both neck and neck but i dnt know but thts why i want to change the turbo and intercooler and wht ever else i have to do 400 if u get my point so any ideas welcome thnks

I have Pro-Alloy 500 cooler for sale. As fitted to my Sierra now.

make me an offer

Top coolers





Its not quite so clean now... but done less than 2000miles so not that bad!

The Genuine Behr 500 Cooler is also for sale.

 

just done a full rebuild on mine and i wanted 400bhp...i had a t34.48 and was going to get a .63 housing for it but was told i'd be ringing its neck and it wouldn't last (due to the fact i drive like a loon) anyway my mates ut t38 came up and i got that...it powers the car easy and when i get head work done the turbos good for 450bhp

 

HE USES NOS!!!!!

 

ur mates prob got a shit setup on a t34

so have you put it on the rollers yourslef or did the previous owner tel you that????

if its true then as someone said earlier, sel the t34 t38 and buy the lil bugger for cheaper

 

hmmm iguess hes set up is shit lol

so wut turbo u lot advise me to buy and extras for 400

zee

 

sorry to clarify my previous post..

the comment came from someone who has power tested litteraly(sic) hundreds of cossies.

maybe being held on the rollers is different from track

 

pm the prices

 

Yes Rod runs a stock 500 one and the nos jets are after the air temp sensor as they are mounted in the intake runners and the airtemp sensor is in the elbow so we can still monitor the air before the Nos and it does not have airtemp issues.

Mark

 

Fairplay if thats the case.

why is that then Mark as I know you are a normally a fan of BIG boost or is Rods Turbos now so big that you run lowish boost and a load of NOS??
If its a trade secret then no worries if you do not want to divulge.

Did the old touring cars and thunder saloons running 2.5 bar on T4's used to struggle with charge temps Tony??

 

Rod runs WI to help combat charge temps AFAIK

 

So do most people... prevention is better than the cure Euan

Water injection just helps you not LOOSE as much power as you would if the ECU has to start retarding the ignition... as you probably know mate, water taking up space in the combustion chamber is not good. You want air and fuel... I think

 

I would always run at 2.5bar never run lower that would make it slower we run a nice water injection set up and attention to detail helps

Mark

 

We have seen very promising results with my new cooler so far and with no water cooling problems. (on roolers only so far)

should be able to hold a charge temp below 30 at the end of the runway


Marks WI set ups seem to work as his engines are the proof but AVA have tested WI many times and you ALWAYS lost power when the WI is on.

 

so without WI you would have charge temp issues pre NOS you think Mark?

Thanks for answering.

 

My point exactly

 

Porkie what intercooler are you using now?

 

We never see more than 40c thoughout the whole topspeed run, Without it most we have seen 50c.
Making the most of heat rejection materials and ducting helps.
