Water to Air Intercooler

[CurtisEmery]

I didnt look at my boost on my 11.0 pass and havent ran it turned up since , i figure the twins i have now would put out maybe 65-75 psi depending on how much heat you through at it , but Nathan is right if i go bigger the frozen boost unit probably wont cut it .

I think all of the others parts you get in the kit would make the cost worthwhile. Even if the cooler fails you still have all the other parts IMO...
I think I may try Frozen boosts kit next season on the puller. I make nowhere near the boost you guys with twins do thou, so I figure it should hold up ok.

Update , I am going to try the frozen boost kit , after talking to there tech people they have alot of people using them at over 70 PSI , they just wont warrenty it above that , the metal used for the core itself is 1/8" thick aluminum , I cant imagine that thick of material would balloon out . Plus a certain :dale-simon: bought one and put it under 100 psi artificial load and left town , it was still at 100 psi when he came back

The Spearco air to air's are 1/8" and they balloon like crazy. Obviously the smaller pieces, more welds, etc generally would make the tanks stronger on a water to air though.

Pressure testing doesn't compare to boosted air running throught it. The heat and on and off boost situation fatigues the joints over time.

I definatly agree , If it fails i will have a custom one made by the Company Russ is using .
