Car was measured at 156 completely standard.Originally posted by tomu80 View Post
Milltek system with high flow cat took it to the high 160's, then fitted the IC and tweaked to 1.3 bar boost.White on red THP

What's your turbos duty cycle at idle?White on red THP

Should be 85%, yes Lionheart will tell youWhite on red THP

Yes - I'm sure that it was 85% at idle before IC upgrade - I saw that value many times. Tommorow I'll check how it looks now - with that Airtec IC.Last edited by tomu80; 26-02-2015, 08:16.Comment

On the back of the standard intercooler there is a large fan has anyone ever known this to come on?if not why not has anybody any idea?Comment

Yes it's to dry your hair with, Prob why it's not come on for you

Never seen one working, even after a good long dyno session when it's gets super hot!White on red THP

The bigger , more efficient, intercooler is helping that no doubt, but surely getting the hot air generated by fast speeds, is best out of the engine bayOriginally posted by Jamie@SPTuning View Post
When travelling at speed, the air throughput sorts that, but at standstill (Traffic) after high speed, the air in the engine bay will be roasting (That's why bonnets are raised after a track session)
Answer- Bonnet vents
With bonnets vents it has been proven to me the recovery time after a hard pull is better, than with standard unvented bonnets. My intake figures also suggest intake when idling compared to before and after vents installation is well better. With more air circulating at high speed, and the hot air venting from the engine bay, that helps too.
Bonnet vents can help, as well as more efficient intercoolerLast edited by Chris_Blue; 27-02-2015, 13:53.sigpicJog on NoddyComment

I checked my wastegate duty cycle - yes it's 85% at idle - so its ok. And here it is last small test result - max boost and intake temp after WOT. The ambient temp. was 6 deg C:
Max boost is 1,15 bar with only 3 deg C ambient-intake temperature difference after hard WOT. :-)Last edited by tomu80; 28-02-2015, 21:48.Comment

Mine does not have intercooler fan. Previous owner had a small front collision. Now I am thinking that the intercooler on my car is not OEM as it does not have a fan attached and the intercooler hoses are to close to the exhaust (picture attached).Originally posted by Jamie@SPTuning View Post
Also as you can see on the pictures wire/switch is not attached to a relay....is it an intercooler fan wire? I am planing in summer than to get the new stock OEM intercooler and fun...would it be a problem to drive a car until than without this intercooler fan?
The car is driving fine and no fault codes.

Everything looks normal/ OEM. Nothing to worry about :lemon:Citroën DS³ // THP 155 // Body Ruby Red // Roof Moondust
