Due
to the normal intercooler placed on top of the engine, less
air passes though the engine so the intercooler will receive
heat when driving long distances or at slow speeds. There is
a disadvantage drop off efficiency to the cooling system.
Replaced
with a front setting type intercooler, it can improve efficiency;
however piping becomes too long so response can be lost as well
as pressure drop within the charge pipes.
Considering
the radiator, if it is given higher power, a larger capacity
radiator is needed however space is limited on this vehicle.
“Cool
Power V” can cover all disadvantages with a balanced high
level cooling system.
Placing the radiator diagonally, it allows for a large radiator
to be installed. Also when mounted this way, it channels more
air directly to the intercooler as well.
A
Less drag Intercooler and high efficiency tube and fin radiator
are placed into a “V shape.”
With
a great turbo and power combination this “V-mount”
Setup is capable of holding up to 500HP, without sacrificing
cooling efficiency.
It
is available for the STI and SPEC C transmission cooler.
