VR4 front mount on AE92 GZE

Post by www.mods.co.nz »

Hi I just got stock VR4 front mount for my GZE and want to know if any body else put this on their GZE and what difference it made power wise, increased lag etc..

Is it worth the effort?

Cheers

The VR4 cooler is one of the best coolers available on the market for sub 15psi operation, which is why they are so sought after...

I have one on my VR4 and I swear by it.

Bazda has a vr4 cooler and has run 20 pounds of boost no problem. Im sure that EVLGTZ has a vr4 cooler aswell and im sure he runs over 15 pounds.

Efficiency wise, 15psi is where it's at for a VR4 cooler, doesn't mean you can't run more boost through, but a bigger cooler will do the job better.

If its turbo yep go for it. If its still s/c dont bother, something the size of a mr2 turbo intercooler is prenty big enough but will still give you lag because of the length of pipes needed

Sounds awesome man, let us know once you dyno it. Might give EVLGTZ a run for his money :D
