Cool, just wondered if you'd remap to suit the more efficient cooler and look for more power etc

In some cases yes,you can get more ignition in there and yeild even more power but in steves case i think if the boost climbs a bit it will be fine as like iv said hes got a bit of excess fuel at top anyway and plus we will have det cans on so no worries there..
If i were to put a spec r on my escos for example id go right through the map again just to check fueling boost and ignition and optimise it throughout..

Sounds like an interesting test. I still fancy a RS500 style intercooler for mine.

Ye i'd really like to see how the Spec R one performs, as i'm very tempted to get one but it is rather costly.

This will be interesting to see! My bro's just had a spec-r fitted to his evo 6 with very good results! For the standard of tune it made 20bhp and 30ftlb more than was expected.
Heres the link..

superb result for the spec r but we were expecting it to be better anyway - the key is how well the airtec does
