w2a to front mount.

[Infinite]

Ok,

Ive decided for clearence issues with cert to go front mount on the curren, So what would be the right size intercooler for a 3sgte grp a motor? is this a case of bigger the better (within reason)..... also dont i need to trick the ecu into thinking the w2a pump is still there or i will get the engine light wont i?

A few more details would help,

So your using a ST205 ECU and Motor? but your going to be putting a FMIC onto it as apposed to the WTA, ( i belive the WTA would still fit fine for the record, i could put a normal st185 bonnet on my car and go all sleeper if i wanted, but thats another story. )

I belive nothing is required, you simply dont run 12V to the pump, if you get an engine check light or not would be intresting to note.

ill find the diagrame for tricking the ecu for you later
its not hard to do

I guess thats what tricking it fixes?

[Infinite]

thanks vvega,

The engine has 3mm of clearence once the subfrace of the bonnet has been removed arround the top mount so it don't fit

I guess thats what tricking it fixes?

if you do anything like remove teh stock wta or run out of water...or fart badly it will put teh ecu into limpdiddle mode

you trick it so you can get around these issues

[Infinite]

any ideas on what size intercooler?

[vvega]

how much power are you looking for ??
anythign around evo sized will almost support what your gunna get out of your setup

my aim is for arround 600hp and the turbo i will be geting will be good for 650.

[vvega]

600 hp is a very seriously worked engine....
is your engine built ro sustain that ?

not yet so i wont be runing it to its full potential my new 3sgte arrives soon then the grp a motor is geting internals hehe then ill drop it back in

[Adydas]

shit dang, Wayne can i support 600HP

[vvega]

yoru rc will see you to 400 but over that you really need to look at something bigger..IMO
ive got one of those xs poer water to air i/c's comming so ill test that out and tell you if its any good :d

[vvega]

sh*t dang, Wayne can i support 600HP

BTW the rest of your motor would probably support 600 hp...but your clutch would not agree
and you would eed a gt35 or t70 to get that sort of flow

after 400 hp you really need to be looking twinplate
