Still a work in progress.
Fair Enough, Ill wait patiently in hope that the info will be released when they are happy with it.

Is the intercooler used their, of the same design that you are selling to everyone else, or has it had some tweaks/custom work done on it?

Im still super keen on getting one, but when i bought the 2nd TD6 it pushed that idea back a fair bit.

They are testing our stock integrated 4 core. Initial results were very good but still testing, we may yet do a 6 core for this depending on the final out come.
 
Any Internal work Matt? Or just the coolant rail into the head?

Would also be interested in what EGT temps its running when it hits the magic 200kw on the dyno? Any chance of sharing that info, or is it a secret?

Cheers, Dean.
From previous experience with the guys at united: EGT wont be allowed to get to 600F post turbo.
 
Wow, Thats very low when your pushing 200 rwKW

Very interested in how this goes.
 
Nearly there!

Just about finished installing my Laminova cooler! :iconbana:
Everything is running and coolant is in etc.
Waiting on a mate to turn up a couple of hose fittings to replace the dody ones I put in to get it going and then it's off to the dyno for a tune. Just wondering how to control the water pump or should I just let it run when the engine is on?
Already seeing lower EGTs but haven't loaded it up yet. A trip to the beach next week will sort that out.

Excellent service from Matt. :cool:

Now I have to save up some money for the new turbo and win lotto for some portals.

Get it in ya!

Sculls.

Water pump on with ignition ;) bring on the dyno
 
320 Celcius yeah right, sure you dont mean 600 Celcius.........
Probably, never paid attention really. I should have. Degrees C makes more sense.
Must have been thinking soldering iron tips which are graded in round hundreds of degrees F. I've been a bit distracted lately.
I could probably ask them how hot it really got but the owner will share if the owner wants to.

Shoulda seen the fish I caught the other day, must have been 2 and a half cubits long. Caught in only 2 fathoms too!
 
ok theres my incentive .. feeding cows earlier now.
Well cows were feed and intercooler test fitted.

Looking good so far but bonnet clearance looked tight, so at 9pm :ahah: we pulled the scoop off and opened a beer ;)

With the scoop off we could close the bonnet and see if there is enough clearance.

:bananaro:

Next up the feed in for the intercooler and adjust the out to match the the factory intercooler.

Now this is the progress ive been waiting for.. :cool:

Looking the goods matt, hope to see some good dyno results and i'll be next in line

Shaun.
