Default Re: Killer Chiller - intercooling option

yes - the last 24hr have convinced me the KC is simply an Add-on and no silver bullet.

I still haven convinced myself of the larger pump - higher flow idea - but the empricals are possibly there saying - decreasing the residence time in the IC is improving things....

But lets say it does....


So -
  • larger IC (LET or whatever)
  • 80deg Stat (hmm...or lock it open)
  • High Flow Pump (Johnson or whatever)
  • Coolant seperation
  • Foil (baked potato) the Charge Air cooler - if you can form an air gap with air flow - even better
  • Run low glycol ratio to increase cp
  • KC to top it off with larger condensor and compressor if you got heaps of money/time.
  • turn the cabin AC on when engine needs it and put the heater on (not sure if the AC is up or downstream of the cabin heater coils)
