colder air the molocules are closer together meaning you can get more air in a given space= more air into motor thats why you run intercoolers to get the coldest and densest air possible.


No one is arguing that point. What we were debating is whether taking measures to minimize the warming of intercooler pipes on the hot side matters since the intercooler will do its job on the air anyway.

cold air + turbo is normally a no no...(Thats why we run intercoolers)
turbo'd cars i like to stick to
volume over temperature......
the more you can suck the better off you are then sucking less and a few degree's cooler...

volume over temp, right there thats what i was arguing

While you guys are at it....why not add an intercooler sprayer to the mix? Spray the intercooler with water or gas to make it more effective! Then, lets all go and do some dyno pulls for results instead of arguing over each persons theories!

sorry to be an idiot here, but what is clocking a turbo?

Repositioning the angle of a turbo to decrease the amount of bends in piping, thus giving better performance.

im gonna bump this thread, as i want to clock the turbo before i put it into my car, i jsut need a little more information on how this is done, how much fabrication is needed and what exactly i need to do to complete it
heres a great topic from alltrac.net about clocking the stock ct26 turbo. read up cuz they have some great pictures/info on how to do it smile.gif
