Stock R34 Gt-r Intercooler...

[xanavinismo]

Hi all,

How many KW's can a standard R34 GT-R Intercooler handle before it reaches its peak efficiency??? Lets use the following as an example: R34 GT-R with the following mods,

1) HKS GT-SS Turbos.

2) HKS Dumps, Front pipe & Metal Cat.

3) Apexi Power FC & Hand Controller.

4) Tomei Pon Cams + Cam Gears (Type A, In & Ex both 260 degrees & 9.15mm lift).

5) NISMO 600cc Injectors.

6) NISMO Fuel Pump.

7) Trust Profec B Spec II Boost controller. (Running 1.2 bar max).

All of the above is good to 'reliably' produce around 300-330kw's at the wheels yeah???

If so, would it be necessary to upgrade the standard intercooler? Would the HKS Type R intercooler be a good choice for this application? Or would that be overkill?

Cheers,

From what I've read (as I've researched this same thing myself) you should get the power you're talking about and the cooler will be fine at this power level.

stock cooler, more than adequate..

Although your other parts...

dumps - waste of money

cams - waste of money

and if your running 1.2bar max... stock injectors will do that too without a problem

cheers

He means camshafts

Adjustable CAM gears a good upgrade weather the car is standard or modified

^^ hole in one!

Cam gears = winners

Cams = not so much, if at all with those turbos

better off having a few beers with the money
