Hi guyz, i have a top mount water to air ST185RC intercooler on my 3sgte. My question is how much boost i can flow through it before i have to change for a Frount mount setup.
I wanna install a ct20b and AEM EMS and crank boost up to 15psi. Is my intercooler enough good? And also, what a not enough efficient intercooling system can cause to a car? |

You can go above 15 psi. The only problem is the more you go above it the hotter the are becomes. So it wont be effective (less air molecules) and dangerous (detonation). Installing Water injection and lagging your intercooler greatly reduces air intake temps.
IE A 1.3 bar CT20 could produce less HP then a 1.1-1.2 bar with Water injection. -------------------- JDM Powerplant installed, BPU coming very soon!
