Man this was so awesome! I am happy to hear the yellow boost tubes are coming out, but I still am afraid to do FMIC because of the tampering of the safety equipment- maybe ya'll can find a way to route it while leaving the bumper parts in place? It might be impossible.
well like we said well be making a front mount intercooler protector but that well not be crash rated. A good second option is our top mount! you'll still get substantial performance gains without the need to remove any safety equipment.
We have a prototype that we are testing out. The CEL has been a real gremlin so we aren't cutting any corners and are making sure we run all the tests we can to make sure no CELs are thrown.
What studies have been done with your intake and temps? Seeing that its "open box" Do you see the temps increasing over the stock box or other "closed box" systems? For the top mounter intercooler what do you think about adding heat tape the do the bottom of the in tanks to help cut down heat coming from the engine?
Welcome back @CRMAG87 as far as open vs closed vs stock your maybe looking at a 2° temperature change. However specifically to the stock box, because it’s plastic it does take longer to cool down after getting warm. In regard to putting heat tape on the end tanks… it is unnecessary because the temperature on the hot side of the end tank is around 50° hotter than the temperature of the engine bay. With that said, it will do no harm so if you’d like to have at it!
@@PERRINPerformance thanks for the updates on that. Trying to make my final decision on the Company and parts to go with for parts with my car since I want a good long daily but with some added fun.
will there be a mount kit for perrin strut bar to mount oil cooler , if i already own oil cooler ? or do i need to buy new oil cooler and basically im shit out of luck ?
