Right,
In "the other FMIC thread" a few questions were raised that did not realy get answered.
Is the forge item the optimum size core?
I was under the impresion that the boost pipe work should be the same as the standard pipe work 61mm or there abouts? if any reduction in size it should only be on the "hot" side of the cooler as air like oil moves easier when hot than when cold?
I understand also that a "good cooler " will need to lower intake temps while giving very little preasure drop ( if any ) ?
Are tapered end tanks ( inlet and outlet in the middle of the end tanks) much better for the s3 than a "normal" design with them at the bottom. ( i asume the air will take the path of least restriction)
