My Zed, with some improvements

Chad a vertical core FMIC is literally two big SMIC's welded together. The only difference is placement.

Ash Spec massives would be up the task.

 

I was using the ash big side mounts with no heat issues

 

Agree, no problems with my smic

 

well yes anti just like a normal horizontal cooler is basically intercoolers together...

thats interesting alex, did u have ducts with yours ? and how much power where u making ... im guessing they are great but it looks like the 350+ mark is where these coolers become a problem

 

thats right your using smics aswell arnt u ? no problems with intake temps ? what coolers ?

 

Using ash specs with ducts.

 

and no probs with ur intake temps even at 465 ?

 

Thanks dudes, yep coolers have moved on since the japteks first appeared as the mofo coolers. At $250 they are a bargain.

Day I do decide I need 2 bar of boost in my life I'll spend up for the Ash specs which are $725 USD ex delivery. Probably well over $1k once landed here and will need some 2" to 2.5" silicon hoses to suit. Car can also be converted to flex fuel at the same time.

 

yeah very true mike big difference in cost i guess quality costs

 

Same power. But no heat problems at all anywhere or anytime on the dyno. Yes i was running ducts. Will be using the ash massive agine for my next engine as well .. those who dont run ducts are crazy.

 

The idea is not to run massive power or mass boost.
The idea is to keep your air tmps down. Sooner And for long . Make for more consistent tuning and as a bonus better flow.

 

thats interesting sound like great coolers. ive got the trust smic with ducts, but i gaurentee theres no way theyd be good enough

thats interesting i believe mike is using the same coolers you speak about ? even has 2.5inch piping ... but not actually sure if hes using ducts

 

I'm not using any ducts.

There's 2 versions of the Japteks now. I'm just using the most basic ones for 2" piping. The new version is called the mammoth cooler which is designed for 2.5" piping. If using these without Ash spec 2.5" boost piping then will need some 2"-2.5" silicon hoses.

 

Big big difference ducts make...

 

I plan to buy some plastic sheets and just make my own. It's on the to-do list.

Along with buying a spare set of indicators and trying this little DIY mod below. Should be much more effective than the fog light ducts. I like having foggies.

 

pic not loading mike but i think i know which pic you talking about where some guy modded the indicator light into a duct aswell looked interesting and coupled with ducts should be heaps better for ya hanging to see your car :br:

 

Magicmike is selling a set of these at the moment I'm pretty sure...
