I've gotten hold of this part called a boost cooler. its made by www.snowperformance.net

either way I have no idea how it works, this video says they don't need an intercooler and its meant to run better than an intercooler....

http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=boos...4&ct=title#

Can anyone explain how this works as i have the ecu for it but haven't met any one who knows what it is lol.

It was given to me from a mate who recently moved to USA and recons its what they useing up there now.... :geek:

makes sense, but i dont think it would be very practical for street use as you would have to have 3 seperate fluid seystems fuel, meth and water.

ok for drags though.

two fluid systems water/meth mix and petrol, the way the boostcooler setup works is that its boost activated. it only consumes the water/meth mix while you have say more than 6psi of boost or how ever you choose to set it up.

does it make a differnce?

who installed it? and is there someone here that sells parts for them?

i only have the black box (the expensive part of it)

a) yes, although you need to pay for a re-tune. Then you run the risk of blowing up your motor if the pump fails at high boost, or you run out of meth.

b) you can do a search,

c) as far as I know, parts (nozzles, tubing, pumps, etc) come from dealers in the states - for example, via ebay, you'll see lots of listings.

d) the pump is also expensive.

running out of meth is only an issue if you don't take at least the basic precautionary measure of installing a level switch in the tank so that you know ahead of time via a warning light that it is getting low.

of course but just an example.

could also be a blocked nozzle, a split line, a failed pump or failed controller..

it probably won't happen but a good system will have some failsafe mode.

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
