It probably is alot better then the old 112 or 122 had to use. The ice will melt fast and is only good for the track. But it also depends on the amount of ICE you have. The standard water tank can't hold enough to chill a coke, so yea thats worthless.

Keep us updated more heat is coming this summer.

Just did a little test and peak temps remain the same around 155.

That's a little on the warm side. Did air temps recover quickly?

Down to 140 in 6 seconds, 120 in 18 seconds, 115 in 34 seconds.

I think recovery times were slightly faster with the fans off, and normal temp seems to have only dropped a couple degrees with the addition of the fans in city driving.

How do you think the peak temps will behave on a larger engine using the same size pulley and obviously less boost. I will be putting my 408 in soon and only anticipate 5-6 pounds of boost, do you think I will still see these high temps? I am down to 13-14 degrees of advance when it gets hot. Admittedly I have it safe since this is my DD after all.

Im not sure if you saw the last part of my above post since I edited it and added the part about the 408.

I know some guys have had success with using just a spacer, supersub for instance. You mentioned above you included one with your larger intercooler, how much would you want for just the spacer part? I am assuming it fits between the upper and lower, but does it also come with spacers for the snout support and injectors and longer bolts? What material, and how thick is it?

Interesting to find out. Wonder is the heat from the psi or rotor speed.

I have never had a 1900 intake set up here to compare patterns. Costing really depends on thickness of material. 3/8 around 250.00. 1" closer to 600.00.

Why don't you upgrade the intercooler pump??
with something like this:
Intercooler Pump Upgrade Kit Includes:
55gpm High FLow Electric Water Pump
Custom Intercooler Pump Bracket
(2) Fittings for the pump
(2) High Pressure Hose Clamps


That's what the GT500 guys use to get the water moving faster with the big chargers.

Are there any concrete tests that prove a higher volume pump is worth the cost? Ive seen data that shows were less volume relates to better heat transfer and cooler temps....

I would think if you can increase the speed at which the water makes it to the exchanger given the volume yours can hold it would benefit from the higher volume pump
