Really enjoying these in depth videos of this build !! Top draw 👌
Thanks 👍
Just had this pop up on my suggested videos.. You helped me find this intercooler recently on the fb vr6 turbo page for my mk2 TT. Appreciate the advice and the video was great! Liked, commented and subbed.
Your welcome mate 👌 appreciate the feedback and sub 👍
Hi, Thanks for the brilliant details video. I'm doing the same to r32 turbo soon. it is great to see all the hard work your doing to your car and helps alot to know what way to go about it. 👍👍👍
Thank you 🙏
Fantastic work! Hey did you get less blowby on your current catch can set up? Did you ever run a single hose or did you just go straight to the dual one you got now?
Thanks. I have dual AN10 hoses to the catch can which then goes to atmosphere. I made a plate for inside the cam cover to stop as much oil passing through
@@dkautos good idea! Was the plate serated? Any pics of it? I'm running a fully forged 550bhp mkv 6266 DBB setup daily for 6 years.
It's epic!
@@TURBOBEATZZZ I have pics DM me on instagram if you have it and il send you a pic. Nice 👌🏼
@@dkautos will do bud good job man!
Where can you order that coolant hose?
Would it be possible to add like a ice box chiller to cool down the watercooler for track/race days? Do you think it would be more effective than the exchanger in the front?.... I feel like it might start to boil the water at some point?
Yes definitely but the ice would melt quickly people generally use ice boxes for drag racing and change the ice after each pass. On the road or track the ice would last minutes, i would not exchange a the heat exchanger for a ice box i would add it aswell as the heat exchanger. Bigger the better on all of it ive just used what i can with the space i have. Should never be anywere near boiling point even after hard driving the water its warm not hot, im currently still on engine break in period on wastegate pressure (14 psi) cruising my intake temps are less than 5 degress c above ambient temp. I did a 3rd gear pull a few days ago ambient temp was 11c my intakes temps were 13-14c cruising then i did the pull and it peaked at 32c which is fine. How well it will work with back to back pulls and more boost i dont know but once ive done more testing i will be doing a video on it 👍
@@dkautos very informative replies🙌im following this build before i start to build my r32 👊👊
Do you run a maf sensor?? What tune do you use ?
No MAF used MAP sensor with EMU black. Custom tune from a guy called nick
@@dkautos ohh ok but i assume that you are Manual trans?
Can you tell me where you got the air to water intercooler?
I got mine from turbo zentrum but im pretty sure its just a chinese generic one
@@dkautos do you have the size you used?
@@collinwiedel 310x245x115mm 👍
Really curious what you did for the MAF and intake side of the turbo
I dont have a maf im running ecu master emu black ecu so im running map sensor instead. I have a filter directly on the turbo at the minute the water to air intercooler stops me having a proper intake. I may re visit it at some point see if i can get a cold feed in
@@dkautos yeah my concern is the water to air getting in the way but I may have any idea or 2 on that
@Vex_man Ye it defiantly gets in the way the only tube I could fit would be way too restricted. Im gonna run a cold air ducted to the back to help slighty but to be honest if i have intake temp problems i may just add water meth
Where did you end up hooking it up to power? I want to add in a thermostat that's throttles the pump unless it needs it
Fuse box is right next to the pump you can get direct battery voltage. Ye i thought of doing that but i can't really see any benefit
@@dkautos I was also thinking more on the airated coolant you are having and I was thinking maybe reducing the anti-freeze ratio. I also was reading its really hard remove the air from the pumps and will constantly cavitate and cause similar issues
@Vex_man Ye maybe but i feel like mine is most airated when the pump starts then calms down after being running for a while. I used redline water wetter with a splash of antifreeze
@@dkautos I am more or less using the same setup as you. Still in the works and not on the car but I guess we can meet in the middle on what we find. I am also going with -10an fittings for this which I wont be able to see if its airated but I might build in some clear tube sections for this one purpose
Why have you gone with the water to air intercooler setup?
A lot less pipe work, faster boost response and just to be different. All newer performace cars use it so i thought i would give it a shot
That looks like HPA’s water cooler
That catch can is not breathing, those two hoses on the valve cover will work against each other. The catch can will never get oil and it’s worse then the original
Yes they are breathing when the engine is running you can feel it out the vent port. Its clearly states on the nike performance info 2 inlets 1 outlet
But that just sounds like an closed loop. There was only one original why two now. Its like bending a straw and try to blow both the same time. Maybe iam wrong. Also doing an Vr6 build, everybody doing diffrent
@Kristoffer mustonen its not a closed loop it has a vent to atmosphere on it, 2 inlets one outlet to atmosphere. Its normal to use 2 vents from the cam cover to allow it to breathe more 2 hoses = twice the ventilation to the catch can then you have one outlet that vents both hoses to atmosphere. Take a look at the nuke performace catch can cans you will see
Well this explains why your setup didn’t work well, you are pushing water in, should go at the top, unless water comes in from the other side, which still doesn’t make sense as cold water should flow from front to back. Also epw40 isn’t the best pump…. Hot water goes at bottom of heat exchanger not at the top, cold water goes out from the top
