Default Re: Smart injection

Here's some photos of the ducting and intercooler.


Here's the intercooler with stock ducting (replaced with silicone on mine)




The intercooler has plastic tanks so perhaps a nozzle could be tapped into the outlet pipe. The mounting means that any condensate would collect in the plastic part of the intercooler.




Here is the Stock TIK compared to the silicone one, the large end connects to a 90 degree bend into the filter, perhaps the best place for pre turbo injection?





Throttle body and top of intercooler, you can only see it's fan. Forge intercooler pipes. You can also just see the blue 'TIK' below and where it connects to the airbox on the left.




TIK connection with turbo. You can also see the first intercooler pipe exiting the turbo.


Not my car, but the blue hoses show up better than black ones, you can see how tight everything is and how the intercooler is not in a good location. some people put a larger intercooler in but I think it is just buying time before heat soak at the cost of lag because there is not enough airflow to cool the one it's got let alone a bigger one.

Some turbo specs,
The induction side:
Inlet 27mm inside bore, 32mm outside diameter.
Outlet 21mm inside bore, 27mm outside diameter.

Exhaust outlet Id. 40.5mm


Cheers!
