Are Water to Air Intercoolers Worth it? FPV 335GT
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 сен 2024
- Superchargers, or "heat pumps" get a bad wrap for their inefficiencies in regards to charge temp and air density, especially factory units that are spinning beyond their manufacturers' intentions. Bretts' GT has been extensively tested pre-intercooler with notable decline in pace for each successive pass (without reasonable cooldown time). So we ventured out to Willowbank Raceway in QLD, Australia to hot lap this setup into heat-soak.. Did it work? You will have to watch the video to find out.
Like and Subscribe, there will be more testing to come! Let me know what you would like to see in the comments below and we can try and make it happen.
Cheers Brett!
Thanks for watching as always,
Blake.
Update: Brett went 11.3@123 later in the night for an equal PB which was originally achieved in the dead of winter and near perfect conditions! I'd call that a win, what do you think?
Technically PB'd by 1 thousandth of a second, but given the weather I'm taking that as one hell of a win!
@@brettwarren3429 Even better! Winter is coming..
Mate another great video love how you go into detail. Number's and facts don't lie. They are a beast those fpv gt 335s
Thanks Scott, glad you enjoy the content! I try to back things up with data, saves arguments. Brett really has this 335 sorted, very quick.
Great video Blake. The interviews are great too chatting with other owners. Thanks for my little segment too 🤣🤣😂😂
Looking forward to the testing you are going to do. I would love to compare our cars in the same dyno once I get the headers fitted and some side by side runs at the track. That would be cool 😎
Thanks Mike, cheers for the smiles! great to see a big pb and I'm definitely keen to run the cars up on the dyno and have a few runs!
That squat on launch is epic
I'm a big fan! it's all stock suspension too.
Was definitely a fun race I’m back on Friday shooting for the 10sec pass 💪🏽
Definitely would have been. Good luck, let us know how you go, nice to meet you.
Damn that thing squats at the line.
It's really selling the whole auto thing to me haha
@@GapSauceRUclips ZF dude. Do it. Less breakages 🤣🤣😂😂
@@SouthernCrossMotors Haha, I have a bunch of snapped ZF input shafts and burned clutches already. lol
That intercooler temps were really stable, thats some good R&D, man i wish ACT had a drag strip, good stuff 🤙
Cheers mate, I'm envious of the drag strips in the US. They seem to be so common and always running events!
@@GapSauceRUclips they do love their drags, the strips are next level, even some 4 wide races 😎
The traction from that irs looks great
He has been a best of 1.58 to the 60ft from memory, my best in the GT is 1.79, so it really hauls ass off the line.
@@GapSauceRUclips 1.58 is the best 60ft. Consistently in the mid 1.6's though.
8:16 i reckon there's at least 2 tenths in weight reduction if he got rid of all those timeslips.
Hahahaha, neatly filed in the center console.
another great video. a mate of mine has a supercharged Shelby Mustang and i have been telling him he needs an intercooler. will get him to watch this.
Hell yeah! definitely worth it for the temps we get here in AUS, and allows for more boost too!
@@GapSauceRUclips yeah for sure mate. he ran a 11.5 in 32C temp so much more in it. will add was on street tyres and its a manual
@@justkyddingracing9268 Thats very decent for street tyres and manual!
@@GapSauceRUclips sure is mate but hey its bought not built he paid 90k for it
Mate, another AWESOME vid! Loved it! Russ & Shawn
Thanks Russ and Shawn! Glad you enjoyed it!
*consistency* 💯 _great vid bro_ 👌🏼
Cheers Ben!
Nice work guy's. It's bloody frustrating when you're trying to beat a PB. I had 11 time sheets showing 11.0 before i broke into the 10's.
I know the frustration, I have at least 5x slips ranging from 10.02-10.1 for my S1000RR. What is your setup Wayne?
@@GapSauceRUclips GT Rspec with basic bolt ons and tuned on E85. Brett knows my car.
@@wayneweier832 I definitely do know your car! Have to get them out together again
Come out to hi octane on the 20th
My pb for that night in my bf2 fairmont ghia was 15.259 at 92.80mph. Theres a little left in it, but not alot.
That's actually pretty decent, especially the mph! Any mods? Race toon?
Completey stock, stock tune. Only has a k&n panel filter and xr6t intake snorkel. Getting a bf turbo lsd with new diff bushes soon.
@@kolelambert41 That would be a good run with our ED xr6 auto, we were running very similar times last weekend and vids will be up soon. Going back on Saturday 😁
Definitely keen to get back out. Just got a bit going on atm. Car has also done a done another pb since. Id have to check what it is again tho.
@@kolelambert41 Hopefully you’ll see a 14 as winter comes in 😁
Bloody awesome car. What a beast!
Install a colder thermostat (normally 82°C), have the fans come on at that temp and off at 80°C to keep the engine from heat soaking.
I’ve employed this with my GT, I’d have to look thru the logs on Brett’s again to see where the coolant was, I believe it did see 100* at times.
Awesome, what software/data logger are you using? cheers
Thanks, HP tuners, VCM Scanner for the logging.

Hi that was grt keep up good work 😃 could you help me out I've got ba 5.4 V8 260 I got idle problem its sound like it missing firing only at idle got new plugs new coil packs ?
Hi Les, id start with a compression test and rule out burned valves and skipped timing from loose chains.
Would like to see the run between the barra and Gt, whether one pulled out faster whether one was chasing down the other. At which point do they perform best!. My guess is pulls hard a end of track.
From memory the Gt was quicker off the mark and the Barra ran it down at the line, the Barra obviously has an upgrade turbo and intercooler etc, so a few more mods than the GT.
@@GapSauceRUclipsthanks for your reply. I have a problem not sure what to do! I have a Gt ( nitro blue fg 335 same as your friends) and a xr6, I have to get rid of one. I see as in the video I posted on this comment section, that a barra is faster over the quarter with the same or less power. I'm not sure but that reason sort of sways me to keeping the barra, I am not able to make a decision can you give me some input, what would you do? Say both cars same value or $$$ being irrelevant? How many kw does this barra have compared to Gt in vidoe ? ruclips.net/video/CUU0eGyLBoI/видео.html
@@bears2604 Races on the street come down to who has more traction. Brett's 335 is running 11.30@123-124mph with only a tune. An FG F6 with tune only will likely be low 12s@115-118.
Barra's are an amazing platform but the Coyote if you already have one is better for power.
335GT will be worth alot more in years to come too.
@@GapSauceRUclips thanks AGAIN 👍
Hi is the rear end suspension standard and back wheels and tryes what size are they? Thanks in advance
Factory suspension, these are xr6 wheels on the rear with 275/40/17 et street drag radials.
Need more line pressure for the zf .
ZF has been tuned. Box isn't 100% happy, but hey, it's a stock ZF for now. Seems to be flaring on the 1-2 shift but it's good everywhere else.
Hey Blake, what vehicle are the cams for that you mentioned sending the 3 cam profiles off to a manufacturer?
Inline 6, SOHC 4L. Predecessor to the Barra 😊. There will be a set for the 5.4 too, after these cams are tested!
Are you going roll racing on the 19th?
Rained out unfortunately.
155kpa manifold pressure..😳
Thats absolute pressure too....
So about 8psi 😊 which is real impressive, should be nice with 12 😎
