I doubt it, it's over complicated and fiddly. If I can find a better way then yeah, but the current incarnation is a one off, sorry.________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

Sorry Chris not if my evil Boss has his way I've been made a pretty busy chap for the forseeable future, I may have to put off my plans for some time to come. Work is insane at the moment. But I hope to get some serious work done once the car is moved to a new location at my folks house as it will much easier to get things done there than at work, its either that or I go flexi time on it and start an hour early four days a week and take four hours on a Friday afternoon each week to progress it, but I cant see that working very well if Im doing it on work premises as there are too many opportunities for people to come and involve me in work related actions, we'll see.________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

Not done much to the race car for ages but I have done a little to the China in case she has to go...First was to replace the knackered cheapo wishbones with genuine ones as this happened twice...   As I hadn't got around to doing the cooler I thought now was the time, so out with the shiny shiny!    Then knock up some brackets to mount the cooler on the rubber bobbins...    Then I made up the braided hoses, for those of you that haven't done these they are a bit of a c**t to work with but worth the effort I think.     Then fill with Purple Rich-bas**rd oil and hope nothing leaks...  ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies. I sell new and used welding equipment in the Hampshire area.

Good to see this going... But oil cooler infront of an intercooler.. spesh a half height one.. detonation is your enemy with high compression forced induced engines. More so at lower revs when air speed is lower.Flip it round so the oil cooler is behind it.. ________________________________________ Team Supercharged Gti-6NV Motorsport Automotive Performance Tuning 0121 448 7515 ECU Remapping/ DPF removal VAG/BMW Diag and Option Coding Peugeot Planet ECU coding/transponder programming etc www.nvmotorsport.com Facebook Page Project S6 |

I thought the issue with the bigger intercooler with low boost was the volume of air inside, causing less stable idle.  I could be talking crap though.  ________________________________________ Goldie the track car. |
