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 guys, planning to get 18x9 +25 in fronts and 18x10 +25 in rears been reading the whole thread and cant really find anything   Anyone know if these will fit a r34 gtt with no scrubbing or guard work needed?
    • They usually get made by hand as part of any such swap.
    • Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?
    • I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".
    • No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.
