V-Mounts

Are the v-mounts worth the money? Or should I just get a front mount and an upgraded radiator? Would i still have over heating problems if i did the front mount and radiator?

From all that I've read, V-Mounts are great. They provide great flow to the ic, rad, and intake. They reduce heat soaking, and if you are going for a more sleeper effect they help out there, until you pop your hood. I personally think the V-Mount is one of the greatest things to happen to forced induction vehicles.

If you are looking for big numbers or reliability I would recomend Rotary Extreme. Here is a link to their V-Mount. http://www.rotaryextreme.com/vmount.html

Right now the group buy price is $2200. Go to

and you can find a lot of info you want to know there.

In a week, I will have photos of my v mount IC/rad and v mount intake installed on a customer's car. It will be the best set up you will ever see. =)

how do you run an A/C with that? I think it's a good idea but I like hy horizontal mount. It's almost a direct bolt it just have to relocate the black fan control, headlamp, ect.. rack. The only disadvantage to my setup is that it really needs some hood vents to work as well as a FMIC. But still V-mount is a great idea.

Rotary Extreme V mount new photos

New photos of the Rotary Extreme V mount with V mount intake and Mini battery:









It works with A/C. The condensor bolts onto the top of the radiator.

For more info, go to http://www.rotaryextreme.com/vmount.html.

far superior in water cooling. Not charge cooling. It's a balance of the two.

Just let me know. I currently have 2 sets of twin 25 row and 1 set of single 34 row in stock. I will have some temp data in 2-3 weeks after this nice customer of mine comes back from vacation and let me install an oil temp gauge on his car.
