Do i really need to upgrade my cooler?


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

I have an 05BP JDM 2.0 turbo GT leggy and have modded the intake and exhaust.

I am just about to go get it dyno tuned for our rubbish fuel and want to know if its worth the extra $700 to upgrade the top mount cooler?

some have suggested the factory cooler is capable up to 340HP? I am not so sure and am after some sound advice.

What were you going to replace it with?

you can get something from the state as these cars a very common there... my mate put a ver8 sti intercooler on his but he also did the manifold also... big job... he ended up putting a front mount kit on...

the turbo is way too small to get any gain on it also... the BP manual has a twinscroll TD04

mr x is back, however not knowing who mr x was before departure, and going on various murmurings about the identity of said mr x i think mr x is probably someone in the know about a good deal of information and therefore one should take mr x's explanations / descriptions etc seriously... no?

Mr supercooler. do some searching rick ;D

Mr soopersubaru promoter /designer of the SOOPERCOOLER. ;)

Still no takers for a water intercooler that works well, for power above 200 kw.??? Why I do not know!! ???

Will do a deal for a taker that will undoubtedly support my design when fitted and proved for themselves..

Not seeking a high price....Any reasonable person that will make a reasonable offer for fitting will be considered.

Tis not easy to promote when there is no support...So come on one of ya!!

Give it a go...You have nothing to lose. :)

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
