The admin of another forum I visit waisted his time putting a jrsc setup on his b16 with a couple of those.

Post by: Conceptz-X on May 24, 2009, 03:23:57 PM: looks like alot of air can go around those without any cooling effect, and if you could make it cool the charge well, it would make for one hell of a restriction
Title: Re: intercooler tubes
Post by: jeffsciv23 on May 24, 2009, 04:15:56 PM: looks pretty restrictive
Title: Re: intercooler tubes
Post by: Doug on May 24, 2009, 05:36:39 PM: Looks hella restrictive. Look at the main in and out ports?
Title: Re: intercooler tubes
Post by: esi42 on May 25, 2009, 04:07:17 AM: You guys are right. That would be restrictive.

Im not sure if he totally knows whats up. He was running a 12.8 afr up to and over 8000 on 8psi with resistor 7s at WOT. Wouldnt post pics of the plugs or explain his reasoning for running that number. He called it a "little lean". Ive heard audible det from less boost on lower comp. engines. I dont know what his timing maps looked like either. I also wonder what his afr was in the high load low rpm areas. I just know I wouldnt do that to my engine.

s300 at least.

Title: Re: intercooler tubes
Post by: Kain on May 25, 2009, 03:39:49 PM: water flows through the tubes, and air flows over the tubes. the fains on the outside are for air to flow through.

the tubes arent restrictive at all.

Post by: Conceptz-X on May 25, 2009, 03:42:38 PM: Depends on how close they are to the manifold sides, but that also determines how efficent they will be. Either way, its a shitty concept
Title: Re: intercooler tubes
Post by: Conceptz-X on May 25, 2009, 03:45:15 PM: Look like they would be best suited for an oil cooler in a radiator tank

the tubes arent restrictive at all.

Are we looking at the same pics, or not?
Title: Re: intercooler tubes
Post by: esi42 on June 04, 2009, 01:05:15 AM: ^^ I agree. They block almost the whole runner.
Title: Re: intercooler tubes
Post by: turbob16hatch on June 04, 2009, 01:13:29 AM: if you look at how lht makes the plenums they raise them up higher then this guy, so there not as restricting.

but i would rather a a slightly restricted manifold then 200+ intake temps. but thats me.
