  • rolling road after airtec intercooler fitted

    just got back from rolling road run on my techno after having the airtec intercooler fitted.

    was 184 at flywheel on Jamie's machine now reading 175 at the wheels which equals around 200 at the flywheel now
    so even taking into account the fact that the runs were on two different machines the new intercooler has made a significant improvement

    Nice, so around 15 bhp gain?

      on paper yes like I say allowing for the runs being on 2 different machines, one giving a printout showing power at the flywheel the other plotting power at the wheels the increase is significant and worth the extra £70 on my insurance.

        Yeah seems like a good gain to me. What other mods have you done in addition to the intercooler?

          it has been remapped by Jamie but the remap still needs more work as there is a big power dip at around 5500 rpm waiting for Jamie to sort this out (newer software version on my ecu) on another car as I am not local to him. I have fitted a short shifter which makes a huge improvement in gear change throw
