Re: Custom Methanol/Intercooler project for my JRSC R (fastvtecCL)
Very interesting.
Are you experiencing any overheating issues without it? (Just curious)
Do you have any pics without the intake on there?

its a air/water cooler.... makes the air intake temps go way down, hopefully

Re: (Doostur)
I'm curious on the effectiveness of that set-up. Isn't the intercooler you installled pre supercharger? Or are you spraying methanol also?
Looks neat, just curious.
Is that the ebay a/w intercooler?

it is pre-supercharged, but the bottom piping of the cooler is like 3inches away from the TB so we'll see how it works...

Can we have more details on what exactly you did, as far as the Methanol is concerned? Looking at your pics I have no way to tell.

I'd definitely love to see some numbers when you've got it dialed in. I'm also curious as to where the methanol comes into play.
My initial thoughts are that it won't do anything due to the fact that is is pre-charger. It will only cool already ambiant air using ambiant temp fluid. Even if you dropped the temp a few degrees the supercharger will super heat that air REALLY fast. But I still don't know where you're using methanol, so I'd love to see what tricks you have up your sleeve. Why not just run straight meth/water injection?

alittle while back i posted a dyno test of 3 different intakes on my JRSC setup... I tested a CAI vs short ram intake vs filter on TB.. at the end of the test the CAI made 20whp more than the other 2 by bring cooler Air intake temps in.. so using the same theory this setup should bring much cooler temp witch will hopefully bring more power...
btw.. i am shooting the meth into the cores of the cooler witch should bring the air temp way down.. now i know its pre-charger but it only has to travel 3inch from the cooler to the TB so it should do somthing i hope... we'll see soon
