HiBoost + ?????? (SRI)

[Heathen23]

It can always be cooler. The IC will cool it down but why not START with cooler air to begin with?

Let's not go there.

lol how come....I never understood people on the board about CAI. It's simple temperature changes. When it starts colder it ends colder if everything else is the same.

The difference in temp. between a CAI/FMIC setup compared to a SRI/FMIC will not yeild enough of a power gain to warrent the CAI...which creates a longer path the air must flow through before it reaches the cylinders.

Oh I'm not sure what or if there would even be a power change, I'm saying if it starts colder then it will end colder with a small IC or a big one.

Hell, I think the same thing about SRI vs. CAI without factoring in an FMIC, but that argument has been done to death already.

but "being to death already" doesn't mean we all got the real poop on it.

i am working on the short ram intake with a local company, and hopefully will have something soon.

Okay well I think i've got some good information here guys, thanks alot! Any Reccomendations to keep Engine Temp down? Cause I'm sure as hell not interested in smoke and poof and all that crap. So I'm gonna threadjack my own thread and lets see if theres a solution to engine temp, I've heard of water wetter before but maybe an upgraded Radiator and some water wetter? Also Money is not really the issue. I'd rather spend some cash and get proven results ya know? So lets hear some ideas on keeping the engine cool!!!

 

[jflo]

definitely water wetter and upgraded radiator like get the p5 full engine bay rad.

 

[speedhawaii]

not this again! do whatever you want.

 

[Dexter]

you cant use a fullsize rad with the hiboost FMIC KIT

 

[slug420]

for cooling underhood temps try an evo style hood....

i havent taken readings yet to find out exactly how much it helps but all i know is the heat POOOURS out of those vents. you can seriously burn your hand on my grilles in my WW evo hood after a short drive.

I think any CF hood helps because it doesnt have all that sound dampening and flame retardant crap on the underside of the hood which i suspect acts as insulation

 

[Projekt Tuner]

I think I might do the AWR with a Watter Wetter... Good Idea? Bad Idea? (Feed Back Paaaalease!!!)

 

[Projekt Tuner]

Anybody? Bueler.... Bueler.....

Turbo Hoses makes a SRI, but I don't know anybody who is actually using it or if it will work with ION or High Boost FMIC kits. (dunno)

it will cost and arm and a leg
