20psi on pump gas only!

Have you seen the big thread on the ebay intercooler yet?

To be totally honest, No I did'nt. I'm not to fond of E-bay so I don't spend much time there.

I'm not much for ebay either. Although I did find my car through ebay though. Would you like a link to the thread?

I have thought about doing an ebay or a powerstroke intercooler. Who's gonna be the one with a running car to do some testing.

Depending on the size turbo you have, You will pretty much bennifit from any front mount over the stock one!

See I have just a little TE-44 turbo and had a streched S/L before making the swap over to the GN1 front mount and it was a WORLD of difference!!

Yeah i've seen some of the posts about sides blowing out and them not deing as efficiant as some others and so on but with a turbo as small as a te-44 I don't think I will be blowing the sides out of a front mount or be worried about efficiancy! :biggrin:

Three things gained from a front mount I see are:

1) Cooler & Less heat soak.
2) Better throttle responce.
3) Can run more boost!

I ran 20-22# of boost on 93 all the time with my race chip which had 24* of timing. Ported iron heads, TA-64 with a Precision stock location. I'd drive it to the track on a 275/60 BFG radial t/a and run 7.20's consitently. Launching it wasn't easy but once I got used to it, it would 60' in the 1.64-1.70 range every pass.

Good work Higher boost and excellent performance are available on just pump gas when you learn how to tune regardless of what people say, I've also run it up to 20-21psi on 93 octane with 0 or very minimal KR. I generally keep it to 18-19psi of boost, 21.1* timing scaling back to 17.9* by high gear and afr in the 11.4-11.6 range - 0.0 KR and has been 11.06 @ 120mph with a 1.50 60ft exactly as I drove it to the track. And thats with a front mount in a Trans Am body that people say doesnt work
