Thanks for the logged run Trend! I feel that an A2W setup utilizing a chiller will give the results that i am looking for. I don't want to battle with IAT's pulling my timing.

I know there are alot of folks(most folks actually lol) that think the chiller is a waste of time and money but i really think it will be exactly what i have been wanting for a DD style setup. Plus, i like the idea of trying something that i haven't personally seen anyone else do.

The consensus on the internet is that A2W setups are far more effective than an A2A. Especially when ice is being used. Of course the downside to that is for a DD or when driving on the street. So I tend to believe that with the chiller i will see the benefit of an A2W on the street. There are impressive log results of 1/2 mile runs. Better than some peoples 1/4 mile iat logs on here.

Of course i maybe drinking the cool aid on this one and it not do what i expect it to do. That's the risk i'm willing to take.

P.S. I also already have an alky meth kit to use with the A2W chiller setup.

Id run the biggest one I could fit and afford.
We built a few air to water set ups out there. But focus on air to air.

We have a new looking battery tank. Ready for you.

I'm going to browse for a used name brand/custom intercooler before i pull the trigger on a china one.

How many gallons does it hold? I would like 2-3 gallons preferably closer to 3 gallons but i know the spare battery tray is space limited. Mind posting a picture of your new tanks?

Interested in that battery tray tank, was about to buy one off summit that fits there, but another option sounds good too.
