Smic?

There is nothing being "radiated" when you're stopped, where the heck do you get info. The "radiator" in you car does nothing when stopped as well, hence the fan.

So you're saying that a heatsink will only become cooler while air is flowing over it? Brilliant...

there is no way that's correct, due to the law of diminishing returns. sorry to burst your bubble, but if you want to follow up on a scientific post, you need to have your facts straight.

It's true

y'all should be lawyers for reeeel. haha

how can you be a fanboi for an actual product like a fmic. He just mentioned cobb...but a fmic will out perform a tmic any day of the week. I hate fanbois for calling people fanbois. try to contribute something more next time.

I responded the the statement of "looks better", do you actually read or just type with your eyes closed. Please pay attention before wasting my time.

Thermodynamics escapes you.

Not really. Lots of water in that IC right. Thermodynamics don't work the same with air as with water. You description also has nothing to do with radiating.

 

[ZyrehT]

you still haven't added any experiential knowledge. you're arguing based on conjecture and "best case scenarios." Which intercooler do you have?

Yeah conjecture, it's how the car is designed, deal with it.

A heatsink is not a radiator. Plus without fans moving air the air becomes the same temp. Stick with apples to apples brainchild.

The post he's referring to is a "scientific" post? I feel sorry for you.

Air is a medium of transfer just like water and they do work approx. the same except for water obviously being a much more potent medium.

If air was not a medium of transfer your body would overheat and die.

I think I made my point, all I can do is present the information, if you choose to remain ignorant than thats your choice.

Happy thanksgiving everyone.

(rofl)(hand) thank you - funny as hell to see someone so wrong try to argue and insult their way out of it.... and you have the balls to throw insults such as brainchild... Priceless

I can't recall a post you ever made that helped anyone. Happy Thanksgiving man.

You're telling me how the car was designed and I'm telling you how the car works. I think we can agree on that.

He called it the most scientific post in the thread, and then proceeded to say something totally incorrect. do you read posts or just type replies with your eyes closed?

 

[t bone]

thanks for the info guys.........im going with the FMIC. it just makes more sense to me. my driving is 50 highway/50 street.. any suggestions on a simple install?
thanks

 

[sleeper3]

if you want a simple install, don't get a front mount.


unless you're doing auto-x or drag racing at a track, a top mount would suit you fine, I am sure.
