My brother and I had been discussing a similar problem with a turbo'ed Acura Integra. Most turbo kits don't come with an intercooler included, hence we were...
... How/why does WI produce a pressure drop? And, if it does exist, I don't suspect that it would be the same amount as what an intercooler would produce. Is...
Ideal gas law, Pv=nRT. If you have hot compressed air and cool it the pressure goes down. Mark Rieb ... From: "Scott F. Williams" <sfwilliams@...> To:...

... I can see running WI as only a good thing. I'd say go for it. Keep in mind that it's nothing for a turbo to put out 400 degree air, so do you really want...
Can you direct me to some links where I could get a peak at some of the kits available? I will more than likely go with ceramic coated combustion chambers and...

Hi, I'm just wondering, I'm using an AVC-R and an electronic boost gauge, both uses relatively expensive boost sensors. The AVC-R even have it's own inline...
... FWIW, I've tuned my 2G to about 22 psi using a AVC-D as my boost controller (solenoid duty-cycle style device.) Now, that 22 psi is with WI engaged. I ...

An intercooler does a bit of both, it cools the air, so you loose some pressure there, and it is a flow restriction. On a low boost system, typically 5-7 psi,...
