Ok i dont have anything to compare this with but going by my seat of the pants dyno the car feels so much better to drive everywhere in the rev range more so high up.
Temps were as follows, cruising around low to mid 20's, flat out(and i mean flat out) held for a long while in 4th max temp seen was 38, shut of throttle and it went up to 48, as soon as the throttle was opened it instantly went down to 38 again.
Pulled off the test track and switched off to let some heat soak and the temp rose again to 36 from mid 20's, drove off and within a few hundred yrds of light throttle it was down to mid 20's again.

Will have to wait to see what power it is at till the next RR day in august.

I'm over the moon with it and as it was half the retail price (bought from member on here) makes it even better value for money.

The old Radtec must of been getting some high temps i think as the difference is like night and day with constant high boost.

Steve

iTrader: (15)

Do you think you will still change the inlet and outlet pipes ?

Steve

Moonstone Steve.

iTrader: (2)

Steve

iTrader: (15)

I got the pipes direct from Radtec and had a mate cut off and weld the new ones on.

Steve

Great news Steve, a few more horses on the Dyno now then too....

Just beat the train driver's figure....

cossie4i+

iTrader: (15)

He already does

But mine has more torque

Steve

Moonstone Steve.

iTrader: (2)

Already have beaten the train driver m8.

Steve

Edit, you beat me to that Steve lol

Moonstone Steve.

iTrader: (2)

Do you think they made any difference m8.

Steve

good results.

RONNIE AMIS

iTrader: (17)

nice to hear you had good results mate

iTrader: (15)

I have no idea if fitting the bigger pipes makes any differnce as i only tested the intercooler after having the bigger pipes fitted.

Steve

Moonstone Steve.

iTrader: (2)

Sorry i thought you had them fitted due to the smaller ones restricting the flow.

Steve

Moonstone Steve.

iTrader: (2)

Cheers lads.

Steve

iTrader: (15)

I changed them because i thought it would be restricted.

Steve

iTrader: (2)

Ok, will do mine as it will fit the turbo to cooler pipe better anyway as its to small a diameter.

Steve

iTrader: (6)

Good to hear this cooler isn't a pile of shit as I have lanky steve's old one

rsmark86

iTrader: (3)

have you got any pics of the pipes and how they fit.....

so these do work then???

space hoppers

you need to do more than one run, the more you push it the higher those temps will rise. the recovery of airtech is not good [been proven on a focus rs anyway] you probally no the best one to get but if you got a good deal and your happy

Moonstone Steve.

iTrader: (2)

James, I did do two hours of driving of which most was flat out and never saw a temp above 38 degrees, I'm not silly i know which is the best but for my application the Spec R is just overkill as good as it maybe.

Steve

Moonstone Steve.

iTrader: (2)

Just been out for lunch with wifey and the cossie, still didnt see any temps higher than 38 degrees, parked it in the resturant carpark for two hours and when i came out the secs was reading 52 degrees, started it up and within a few hundred yrds the temps came down to mid 30's and then settled to mid 20's.

Oh and Tracy+500bhp= new underwear please lol

Steve

cossie4i+

iTrader: (15)

Since when have you had 500bhp

Steve

BRAMMER

iTrader: (23)

Don't be gay it's as good as 500 and if he tests in the winter like you it will be well over

My 70mm cooler still has the original size pipe work but i will be changing for the bigger ones at some point due to t/b size so will be interesting to see if their is any difference if you change Steve.

cossie4i+

iTrader: (15)

He could do a back to back test with R4N S S as it already has the modified pipes.

Steve

Jay,

iTrader: (4)

are you guessing its better than the radtec or have you tested them properly back to back steve

Steve,great stuff,it can only be an improvement on the old pace unit.I have a pace cooler on my car,it's looking a bit sorry for itself now,I've just puchased a new cooler with 76mm pipes,hasn't been fitted to the car yet.
Glad you are happy with your improvements Steve.

Thanks.Lee.

BRAMMER

iTrader: (23)

I had a 50mm PACE on mine at one point and the difference between the two was like night and day just going to an Airtec with standard pipes

Moonstone Steve.

iTrader: (2)

Acts were higher with the radtec Jay, more so on the RR

Steve

1374lee

iTrader: (11)

Exactly Chris,how things move on and strive to be better,more efficient etc.Not always the case though but on this topic I would say so.

Thanks.Lee.

Moonstone Steve.

iTrader: (2)

Thanks m8, what cooler did you go for?

Steve

Jay,

iTrader: (4)

Steve you cant compare rr to road use

Moonstone Steve.

iTrader: (2)

I didn't i said they were higher more so on the rr, meaning higher on the road and rr, also i'm assuming the ecu was retarding the igniton after long bursts as it feels so much stronger /faster during prolonged thrashing.

Steve

1374lee

iTrader: (11)

Alright Steve,I got the big 600bhp plus version cooler from Pro Alloy,65mm core with 76mm pipes.Expensive,great quality,I hope it performs well to,fingers crossed.

Here's some pics.
