Awe shot !

Tha Thanks for the feedback man. I'm a college student and have already invested a lot of money into the car so as much as i'de love to get a bigger turbo I think i'm just going to maximize a ko4 setup. It feels like a TR8 is overkill if I'm not upgrading the turbo and I know that bigger isn't...

I I live in South Africa so the only way to get a bar and plate core with a decent thickness was to buy an Intercooler and have it cut heightwise and welded over with an aluminum plate to fit beneath the crash bar. I know the specs of the TR6 But I am trying to get real world data in regards...

I am looking to install a Treadstone TR6 on my speed (already have a ‘decent’ front mount on).. I am running stock turbo and seeing about 10- 15 degrees above ambient when cruising and then temps drop to about 5-8 over ambient when I’m boosting. Has anyone ran the TR6 on stock turbo? What were...

Cool man! So did you just stick with your corksport can and then use some fresh 5/8” hose + the Damond check valve to re-route things ?

I bought my pu with a Corksport catch can setup already on the car, but I have been reading a lot about venting crankcase pressure and the use of vented setups. I am currently on k04 and 20psi, wondering if I need to upgrade my setup ? Someone suggested to add a vented breather cap and a check...

I have recently gotten a custom bar and plate Intercooler built which fits beneath my oem pu crashbar (23.5” x 7.25” x 3”) > it’s similar to a TR6 or Cobb core.. will the flow rate/pressure drop be suitable if/when I upgrade to a CST4 ? It seems like most people with mid-frame turbo upgrades run...

I mistakenly purchased a gen 1 CPE Intercooler and now have a shroud that does not seal at all. Unfortunately, I was left with a seller who would not accept a return... I was wondering if anyone can help me with some information on the genpu shroud so I can have one machined for me. For the...

About to have an Intercooler cut height-wise to fit beneath my crash bar because where I live the only cores that fit are only 2.5” thick. Would 4” be too thick to fit behind the stock grill ? My options are 3” or 4”.. do not plan on upgrading my turbo for the foreseeable future (but could go...

Well considering what our friend Awafrican has said. YES PLEASE !!!! :):):):)

I am a Speed 3 owner down in South Africa and aftermarket support here is an absolute NIGHTMARE. Fortunately I am from the US and have family back there (that bring me goodies), but right now with the current world situation I won't be getting any upgrades for the forseeable future. That being...

Thank you so much !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Going to do this first thing tomorrow

For the last month or so I have been having big issues with my driver side seatbelt. It hardly retracts and requires that I manoeuvre it manually to go all the way. When I take it off at a parking spot, the belt hangs pretty badly. Has anyone else had this problem ? Does anyone know how I fix it ?

I Have my doubts about ETS doubling the horsepower gain with the same core thickness. CPE also has endtanks that flow very well, sealing shields and top quality fin design

That’s my concern

Hello everyone, I have been playing a bit of a guessing game when it comes to getting my genpu to temperature when driving it. I have an accessport v3, and someone suggested that once the coolant temp reaches 160 I can start getting into boost. I often get into a tiny bit of boost for a pull or...

To be honest, it really depends on whether I build the engine or not. If I stay on the stock block, I will probably just upgrade to a BNR s3 and keep it within very safe parameters (less than 350 torque no more than like 360 horsepower). I could run a core that fits under the oem crashbar that’s...

Well that changes my whole perspective ! Less cautious now thank you for the insight

Sounds like you've got some pretty cool insurance. I think it would probably be safer to have an entirely new bar then have an oem crash bar that has been altered... I will try and see what my insurance says when I'm ready for the bigger cooler. I get everything confirmed in plain english so god...

Does anyone know how guys run these aftermarket crash bars and still get insured ? I want to get one for larger core but concerned that my insurance company will deny a claim messing with one of the biggest 'safety devices' on the entire car
