the neocooler!

TurboTim 03-21-2008 09:26 AM

12x18 core?

About time. Personally I don't like those tiny intercoolers some of you are using, they look funny/undersized (even though they are probably fine), like an MSM intercooler.

Then again mine's way offset and looks funny too.

jasonrobo02 03-21-2008 09:37 AM

Brain, what is the total length of that thing?

m2cupcar 03-21-2008 10:03 AM

The question that begs to be answered: Why? Are you going to run more boost? Or were intake temps elevated? Or did you finally admit that offset intercoolers are too cool? ;)

sbrian2 03-21-2008 11:29 AM

Why do you need to offset your intercooler? Do y'all pansies need A/C?

Loki047 03-21-2008 11:31 AM

Anyone else seeing Taser Shots of the day and getting sorely disappointed?

m2cupcar 03-21-2008 11:34 AM

No a/c is for race cars.

loki that's a great idea for a legendary BS forum thread

no, simply cause i can. old core was 11" in length, so it didn't fully cool the charge. this new core is 18" in length and should fully cool the charge as much as it can. I was only seeing a 20°F delta before, but comeon....it's cool.

new teaser (sorry no taser):

rappadan 03-21-2008 11:47 AM

woohoooo. looks like its at home! BTW scott we are going to be at Damons right at 50 and 28 and i'll give ya call when we get out so i can get the hoist.

A/C in turbocharged Miatas is for nancyboys.

Joe Perez 03-21-2008 02:00 PM

Looking very nice, Scott. Not just the IC- the whole package. I'm so deliriously happy to see Rev2Rev rising from the metaphorical ashes. :bigtu:

I want to pull mine pretty bad.

m2cupcar 03-21-2008 02:12 PM

:giggle: Yeah Sav- I can tell you know what real heat is like by the location in your in your user info.

I got stuck in an interstate traffic jam last summer with a 101f ambient. I did about 3 miles in 45 minutes w/o a/c, so I can't imagine being stuck in a "man sized" traffic jam.

Let's face it - pulling the a/c is the easy way out of actually making it all work with all the turbo stuff.

sbrian2 03-21-2008 02:21 PM

I guess you pro a/c guys like that power steering and all that other fancy stuff that slows you down and adds weight too? :giggle:
