I still don't understand your argument. 30whp is 30whp.

Where do you think the power gains are coming from? I'm going to take a shot in the dark here and say lower IATs. How much lower? Enough lower to get 30 more whp than stock. That's reason enough to buy them.

Note that I don't have these, so I don't have any bias. I just think your argument is kind of unnecessary. Yes, more data is great, and I wouldn't mind seeing IAT data myself. But like I said, 30whp is 30whp.

cant wait for mine to come in, thanks sergio - osu s2k 2006-05-10 05:46:19 (79 views)

Looks great Sergio, hopefully you get the IC's in next week. - 808Guy 2006-05-10 01:09:53 (107 views)

This is great. Sergio - - das eighty 2006-05-09 22:46:04 (133 views)

it would be ideal to see a stage 3 k04 (awe/rs4 intercooler) dyno dynamics sheet for comaprison - faiz 2006-05-09 21:48:31 (124 views)

A dyno comparison is far from ideal if you're trying to compare the IC performance. - Flyboy 2006-05-10 04:10:50 (125 views)

They SEEM to be working well as a street setup for stg2 cars I think that is why - DVS27T [evolving] 2006-05-10 11:04:07 (118 views)

Sergio is right, between installing 2 sets of intercoolers, and doing the dynos (MORE).... - faiz 2006-05-11 08:11:27 (108 views)

Very well put Faiz - Phoenix80 2006-05-11 13:27:44 (78 views)

oh i dont want you guys to think i think he is avoiding i am just curious - DVS27T [evolving] 2006-05-11 10:46:04 (78 views)

Time was so tight that I didn't get to eat that day until 9PM. Thanks for the props too:) - silva - IPP 2006-05-11 10:33:47 (91 views)

I did not log IATs this time around. I was too busy trying to coordinate 10 runs in an 8 hr period.. - silva - IPP 2006-05-10 14:03:40 (101 views)

I have another set to be installed shortly.... - silva - IPP 2006-05-10 14:20:52 (162 views)

oh i wasnt trying to say anything about where they stack up, merely how they perform in the real - DVS27T [evolving] 2006-05-11 00:04:18 (78 views)

Here are some things I'd be trying to do if I were conducting the test. - Flyboy 2006-05-10 15:03:26 (133 views)

Your first test criteria is eminently valid and beyond my capability... - msc 2006-07-10 20:25:35 (73 views)

rowing through multiple gears is always a good idea. for instance you will see much higher temps on - DVS27T [evolving] 2006-05-11 00:06:13 (66 views)

IAT isn't the only important variable <cough> pressure drop <cough> - B5QShip 2006-05-10 08:03:51 (69 views)

at the size of these side mounts we arent even close to dealing with that variable - DVS27T [evolving] 2006-05-10 11:02:25 (84 views)

Didn't say it was all that important here, just saying in general that IATs aren't *everything* - B5QShip 2006-05-10 11:09:38 (84 views)

when you are dealing with heat exchangers that are too small because of the inability to readily - DVS27T [evolving] 2006-05-10 12:11:59 (100 views)

again, I ain't arguing with you there. Just being thorough, that's all =) - B5QShip 2006-05-10 12:23:58 (63 views)

I still don't understand your argument. 30whp is 30whp. - box_of_partS4 2006-05-10 04:36:29 (120 views)

I dont think its unnecessary it all and 30whp on a dyno run is not gonna be a repeatable - DVS27T [evolving] 2006-05-10 11:06:44 (94 views)

Um, it WAS repeatable...they did multiple runs, each time getting 30whp over stock ICs.... - box_of_partS4 2006-05-11 07:33:40 (88 views)

IAT logs please! - DVS27T [evolving] 2006-05-09 21:43:56 (103 views)

How much are these ICs? - AUDIS4BI::WMS 2006-05-09 21:40:25 (103 views)

~$790 IIRC - Dr. Jekyll 2006-05-09 21:52:17 (107 views)

Awesome! If I can just find the time to install mine. - Pearl of the Orient 2006-05-09 21:12:19 (103 views)
