using a Y8 one, from hondarec down the coast, as for how much... u dont wanna no, lets just sa i was desperate and its the only one i could find in a day

Might wanna think about heat management and air flow through the front end of the car otherwise you might run into some issues.

[Aza]

its using the same cooling as last setup and that never got hot, no reason why this setup should either.

[JasonGilholme]

...righto.

[Aza]

well explain what u mean then?

[JasonGilholme]

* you've got a large hole where the AC radiator used to sit so air is going to find its way through that gap instead of through your radiator. yes your car might not over heat but its not as efficient as it could be

* obviously you've got reduced air flow cause of the intercooler. might want to see if you could re-route some cooler air from the front to the radiator or even to the air intake. Every degree counts.

* Your turbo is unshielded so i'ts going to be producing alot of heat which is going to be soaking into surrounding components (block and radiator)

Its small things like this that make it alot better. Might be marginal buts always an improvement.
