$2200 is a pretty damn good price....especially with shrouding and the new radiator brackets......

Hey, is that a picture of Chuck welding?

genius at work

For all you guys who have been patiently waiting, all the parts are polished and ready to go. I'm dropping the car off Monday afternoon. Chuck will be doing the install during the next week so the pictures will be up probably by the end of the week. I think you'll all be very impressed.

Nope. That's my fabricator.

Mr. Tgriesel's car is finally done and looking nice.













The car also has the V mount intake which has 2.5 times the size of opening at the bottom of the box than the regular cold air intake such as the M2, Pettit Racing, etc. Everything works together as a complete package. The Rotary Extreme twin 25 row oil cooler kit was also installed on the car. This car is ready for race track any day.

Thank you.

thats ******* beautiful chuck

Agreed!

How much boost can the IC hold?

Blake

The IC can hold a good 30+ psi. The tube on the IC is a special one that's extruded from a solid piece of aluminum, not like those old style cheap ones that can't hold high boost.

I personally have run up to 1.5 bar with the core and nothing happened.

Thank you Node. If I can make one for the TII as well, will I be DA MAN?

What are the specs on the intercooler core?

Well, as you've experienced, theres not much market for big money items for FCs. :-\

I don't mind putting money in my FC. Think of how much lower my purchase price was.

Is the "V-mount intake" in the pictures just a polished M2 intake, or has Chuck taken his "borrowing" of other companies' designs to a new level?

Also, what shrouding is everyone talking about?? I don't see any shrouding, all I see is huge gaps where air could easily escape around the IC and radiator. Just like the huge oil coolers without ducts, I suspect this configuration gives poor performance. Proper ducting is absolutely necessary. Maybe I'm not seeing the correct images.

The V mount intake is not the same as the M2 intake. In fact, it only works with V mount. If you put it on a car with regular radiator, it's not going to work.

There is shroud. It's all polished so it's hard to see with all the reflection. If you want to see a picture of it, send me an email.

If you are wondering about the performance, you can PM tgriesel who is the owner of the car and ask him about his opinion.

Chuck,
It looks fabulous.

What is the procedure for turning the AC radiator over like that? I believe it is plumbed with hard lines, correct? What does the install entail?

Wade

iTrader: (1)

Okay, let me clarify. The intake in the pictures appears to be a modified M2 intake. Is it not? Sure has heck looks like it. If it isn't a modified M2 intake, then it is the most accurate copy I've ever seen. But now that I think about it, I suppose there is nothing wrong with reselling a modified M2 intake anyway.

Yeah, I'd be interested in seeing some pictures of the shroud. Please post them in this thread or send them privately to wadelanham at hotmail dot com.

Wade:

If you really think about it, the M2 intake will not be the optimal intake system for the V mount. The sideshield that's supposed to block the radiator heat now blocks the cold air coming into the box and the bottom of the intake is not going to fit with the Vmount shroud. You really have to visualize the whole v mount setup in order to see this.

Let me clarify it once again, my intake is not a modified M2 intake and it's not a copy of the M2 intake either. M2 only sells the CF one now so obviously the intake can't be an M2 because it's aluminum. It's designed to work with the V mount only and the M2 air box will not work with my vmount if you want to put on the shround so it can't be a copy of the M2 either. I have to make a box to fit inside a rx7, work with the stock sequetial turbo, and to take the minimum space so I can put the biggest intercooler in there. How many ways can I make an intake box to fit those criteria? I would be surprised if it does not look similar to other kinds of intake box on the market.

Here is the photo you are requesting.



Never mind the old radiator brackets. They are already upgraded to the better version as seen on the silver car.
I have differnt kind of shrounds to work with different setups. You actually have to tell me what kind of intake you are going to use and what kind of turbo you are going to use so I can send you the right shrouds.

For the oil cooler duct, you didn't see the car in person when the bumper is on and if you did, you will notice that there is pretty much no space for the air to escape from the side of the oil cooler because they are wider than stock and the air entering pretty much has no where to go other than through the oil cooler. If you really want some ducts, I can have those made in aluminum but you have to tell me what kind of bumper you have so I can make one that's tailored to your applicaton.

I hope I have answered most of your questions. Thank you.

Peter:

You will have to unbolt the A/C condenser. There are two metal lines on the A/C condenser. The smaller you need to bend it into a V shape and the other one you have to bend it 45 degrees. You will be giving all the hardware to bolt on the A/C condensor on top of the radiator but you have to bend the A/C lines yourself.

I will give the V mount buyers detail instructions with photos that I took during the installation on that silver car so as long as you follow the instruction I am giving you, you shouldn't have too much trouble. It just takes time and some patience.

Post more pictures!!!!

And could you make the IC wider to take up all of that room, like almost as wide as the radiator, and just maybe use the right side bumper hole for the intake, or a couple vents in the right side of the V-Mount Ducting, use the left for a nice big upgraded oil cooler.

lol.. nice oil leak..



let me guess.. left rear engine mount eh..


The kit looks excellent...

I will be working on a monster one which requires relocation of the battery to the back but it will only work with single turbo because you will have no space to put any kind of air intake or air box for the stock twin turbo.

My T51R kai turbo blew up so I can't work on this until my turbo is fixed and my car is up and running again.

Chris, thanks for the compliment but you are wrong about the oil leak. It's just some water. My Mazdaspeed motor mounts are still nice and fresh.
