here's a pic of the relay box(mounted upside down) and you can see the air path to the ic, rad., ac condenser and intake

 

Make sure you seal up the relay box!!!! Otherwise water will get in and cause havoc!

 

LUCKY BASTARD THATS THE INTERCOOLER I WANT!!! how hard was it to install? how long did it take...

 

...it was pretty easy ...i took my time , did it in a weekend , along with drinking beer when my buddies stopped over....
i had a few questions ..thanks to DGblk93 , AgentSpeed , Scrub ,and KaiFD3S
for clearing them up...

 

thats so beautiful it hurts

 

wow i love the set up and love how clean the engine bay.

 

Looks good man, glad you decided to go with it, you should get the cold air box tho, I think the design is pretty generic and you don't need to get the rotary extreme one if hes not making it anymore, the M2 is similar I believe. Good Luck

Yellow jacket tools makes a mandrel ratcheting bender that is 3/8 1/2 3/4 7/8 . I hooked up my condenser this week with new koyo in the straight up position and if not for the bender i would never have gotten the suction line to fit in new position. But the cost is 250.00, but i work on airconditioning units and had access to it free.

 

I love my Rotary extreme V-mount I have the same kit just modified the turbo pipe so i used it on my single turbo setup! I love it and will never go fmic again. Not after i noticed how cool my intakes temps are compaird to other fd's aroud my area with fmic's and my coolants temps. never ever have a prob with over heating even sitting in bumper to bumper traffuc for 1 hour.

I will post pics of mine tomorrow

 

I have this setup too, re v-mount with airbox, your temps are lower than people with FMICs? I've only had the v-mount myself but I'd think that FMIC should get even lower temps.

-Andy

 

I don't think FMICs are all they're cracked up to be.

I used to go cruising/tearing up the highways with my buddy ccarlisi.

His setup: gt35 single turbo, greddy 2 row fmic.
My setup: BNR stage 3 non-seq, M2 Large smic.

Our intake temps were always within about 1 degree of each other. I don't have a/c, so maybe that helps a bit. His coolant temps were always higher than mine of course, on his new 20B project he is adamant about staying away from fmic......

 

Remember I dont have the air box. I used this set up with my single turbo. I will see if i can post pics of my setup tonight.

 

now for sale...another v-mount convert

they do look slick

 

what are the IC core dimensions and the rad dimensions does anyone know?

 

not really sure, sorry ...chuck told me the ic is good for 600hp...and the rad. was almost twice the size of the stock rad. made a huge difference...also its a koyo rad.

might be on his web site... rotaryextreme.com

 

Is it the regular V-mount?

 

mine is yes...i got the regular v mount

 

Well the IC is a Greddy unit and the Rad is a Koyo, don't know the dimensions or part numbers but it can most likely be looked up.

On another note I saw Sonny from Rotary Extreme today at wednesday night drags, he said RE is totally shut down and I think he said Chuck is in Taiwan.

-Andy

 

never really talked to sonny....but chuck said he might be leaving in a month or two last time i talk to him....maybe he left early...

 

Chuck is on vacation, he'll be back in about a week or so.

 

he took my money and went on vacation...

 

any chance you can measure the dimensions of the core of your v mount?

 

yeah i can do that ..

 

core is ......15 x 10 1/2 x 3

and the full size(tip to tip), sides with tubing and all is... 21 1/2 x 11 x 3 1/2

hope that helps

 

Thanks for doing that. I was afraid of that, it's quite a bit smaller than my M2 large.

reg v mount core: 15x10.5x3=472.5 cubic inches
M2 large: 17x12.55x3.5=746.7 cubic inches.

damn, that is a substantial difference
