How much power does GT2 IC's on a stage 2?
 
Has anyone dyno'd a before and after ( or has a rough idea) of how much power they're good for on a typical "stage 2" running 0,9-1,0bar?

EDIT: Would a Moderator please edit the title for misspelling?

hey kiko.. the flow is the same since they are the same end tanks and sized cores... However, the fins do protrude outwards and apparentely Porsche claims they're 3% more efficient... If you want IC's that flow more and give you more power: http://www.sharkwerks.com/products.php?pid=64

But I thought I read somewhere here on 6speedonline that your IC's would be overkill for a mere stage 2...

For stage II they would kiko.... Better flow is always great but I'd do other upgrades first;)

you don't need them at this level.... do some turbos first.... :)

kikoi got the gt2 after a long time conversation regarding maintaining boost levels in hot weather i remember 10 percent more cooling ..... went for kevins k16s and other up grades was hopeing for more with the 4000,00 upgrade to evo.....no dyno yet.. seat of the pants dyno a mild increase maybe i need to drive more to let the ecu learn .

Steve, how do these IC's affect your programming? Plug and play or does the ecu need to be tweaked? 4k and you need the ECU to learn? Kevin

todd at evo said no reprogram.... am sure it takes 5 hot and cold starts for the ecu to learn..... so i have been told

Steve, to learn what? There is less pressure drop, less heat soak, more flow? I assume you have done the 5 hot and cold start? How does it feel? Is this a mod that can only be felt on a dyno or during a long ,hot day at the track that would heat soak the stock IC's. Just curious on some real world feedback because I am interested. Kevin

Im almost 100% positive it wont be felt by just swapping intercooler's on, its really just for better airflow efficiency which results in less heatsoak. Same with the nitrous intercooler setups, cant be felt unless doing runs in hot weather like you mentioned!

you need them. your missing out on the full potential of your set up.

Oak,
you are joking right?
I cannot ever tell with you...

Oak, you're killing me on the Rennlist "Evo airbox" thread !!!hilarious

I apologize, some times I can't help putting my .02 from the "peanut gallery". some of the guys have such a hard on. I can't resist. I mean no harm.
