Back when I was growing up there was no ebay.
Perfect setup for your power goal, I think. |
great job! i had plenty of people that thought my i.c. setup wasnt going to work that well and it turned out working perfectly. glad you went through with it
|
Good job, looks like you have the same "jdm" one that I have lol.
|
What do you guys think about this set up. I am only hoping to make around 210 with a T28. 27" Turbo Intercooler+2.5" Piping Kit B/R MIATA PROTEGE : eBay Motors (item 280474281407 end time Apr-04-10 20:28:12 PDT)

27" may be a lil to big! hell the big intercooler that FM sells is a 19" and requires modification to the AC lines to fit it in a NA!
|
Thank for the help WonTon any recommendations?
|
Looks good to me! I like the hanger bracket approach for the upper mounts. Nice work man.

here is a better look. Attachment 198763 this shows how i snaked it to the throttle body. mmmmm....i can't wait until i get it welded. 8) |
You have/will have a brace that holds the bottom of the IC right? Not so much to support its weight, but just to stabilize it.
|
Budget racer, I'm looking for an update and your observations. How are you liking the performance of the JDM cooler? What kind of pressure drop and other observations (IAT's) can you share? I am in the market and its down to this intercooler and the identical cxracing one.
Cheers |

Attachment 197769 Attachment 197770 Attachment 197771 Attachment 197772 Attachment 197773 Attachment 197774 i made huge progress this past weekend. i hope to have it back on the road as early as this saturday. just need to: - bleed & adjust brakes - reinstall my free replacement LC-1 - install my 3" turbo back exhaust - reintall front bumper once all of the kinks are worked out.....install my strut tower bar, add some ducting, and toss in my cleaned RX8 injectors. then the boost gets turned up. hoping for an easy 200whp with full boost coming on super early. fingers crossed! |
Nice job. But I'm not fully convinced that OTR is any easier than the typical ATR.

One suggestion, create a blockoff plate to keep all the air going through the radiator. as it is now, easiest route for air is over and around the radiator vs. through.
