Coolers.........

Mine (gze,afm,aw11) hunted pretty badlt when i had a stock cooler front mounted.

I changed to longer piping, and fitted a 550x190,76mm cooler behind the front bar.....no more hunting!


next question...
My car has boost when i start it and for about 5mins into a drive with a noisey charger...(i can hear it when i back off),
15 mins later, it doesn't make any boost, and i can no longer here it.. car still runs fine, idle's drives, so i know its not boost leak.

Could it be the elect clutch? or is my charge fried?

anyone got a sc14?

To make my frontmount piping easier I ran a narrower radiator (Gemini, they come in 2 and 3core varieties) over toward to passenger side. And ran my cooler pipes through the gap left on the driver's side of the radiator support panel.

Firstly this was with the stock topmount, then with a GZ20 cooler modified to have inlet and outlet on the one side.

Keeps pipes about as short as possible.

mine has problems hunting, but i don't think it has anything to do with my piping... more my tuning.


to tell the truth, by the looks of both setup pics on here where the pipe's both run to the same side of the ic, my piping doesn't look THAT much longer... and there are so many big bends in the two pictured, where as mine only has 3 small bends...

though i am concerned with the SC lag i might get with my ic... it's the smallest hybrid you can get, but i think i may have to go smaller...

i defiantly think the Air to water cooler would be the best way to go if you could get one gilly... they really don't take that much room, they'll be short on piping, and all you'll really need is a water reservoir, pumps and a little oil cooler plate to keep it cool. And the temps you get from them are FAR superior than air to air

i've never had a problem with the T50, and i don't baby it, but i don't smash it too hard either. It holds up extremely well considering it was originally behind a 4ac

oh yeah... another old (not that it's changed) pic of mine for reference...

Verm, your cooler setup is similar to mine. I hate it personally but cbf changing it. More than anything, id say your lag is due to the massive cooler (same size as mine).

I found with my cooler after a spirited run, the inlet would be hot as and 1/3-1/2 the way it would be ice cold (and the same to the other side). So something half the size would be perfect imo.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Nikkojoe @ Apr 28 2008, 01:49 PM) </div>i haven't been able to drive it yet with this cooler set up, so i can't really tell you if i have sc lag or not, but i am considering going a smaller ic for sure... i thought i would have been small enough, but then i got it put it on and thought "oh shit... it looks too big!"

I got my GZE with autronic SMC, decent size fmic (2" piping), 50mm TB, extractors and 2.5" exhaust, it ran like a pig and was slow. I then got a NST 180mm pulley kit and a tune, it still idled shit and was slow, so I ditched the sc12 and put an old Nissan T3 on, and it makes 36rwkw more on the same boost, starts and drives smooth as like a normal car, sounds infinately better (no more raspy gay exhaust sound) etc. And the T50 has so far survived a couple of track days (supercharged and turbo) with some harsh shifting :2thumbs: .

In conclusion, turbo is better than sc12. :greenbounce:

people who go gze want torque. people who go gte want power.
some crazy bastard went gzte for both but lets not get into that.

meh the numbers didnt mean much to me, I just wanted a faster overall car that was more friendly to drive, I got that by losing the supercharger.

i have a gen 3 3sgte celica water to air cooler lying around if someone would like to make use of it. Apparently when used with said motor 300kw is an easy task for stock cooler.
