Do we know what exact make of intercoolers those cars had on the day?
Mines an APR one... uber cool, especially with its meth
I always thought the marketing hype around intercoolers was a little unfounded but to be fair your APR one helped by wmi does hold up very well compared to some of the others. Its only when similar cars of similar power are run together that these subtle differences can be seen and appreciated.

yep, the benefit of same model dyno days... relative performances can be made, and products which differentiate outcomes can be seen

I realise this a holy thread resurrection. But as I have been looking at the info/logs kindly provided by Bill and everyone in this thread I thought I would put in a post to say thankyou and post one of my initial sets of observations.

Firstly I have looked at boost compared between cars - note the S3 Stock comparison was done in 3rd gear on the road so didn't build boost initially as well.

Also the Revo 1 car of Quintin Rose which underperformed in terms of power was seriously underachieving on boost vs set-point - but with greater WG duty cycle than the Revo 2, so something underlying there.

I hope to make more comparisons in the future, but there are fewer logs with lambda/ign timing/injection time/rail pressure details available. So those will take longer.
