Good Intercooler upgrade for T2

Hi all,

I'm getting my IC piping done and want to install a new Intercooler while i'm at it.

Anyone know of a good Top-Mount IC that fit's under the T2 bonnet? Eg. RX-7, WRX??? Starlet GT etc.

Cheers,
Luke.

Re: T2 only running 9psi. Any idea's why?

Also, my boost guage doesn't show negative pressure, on idle it's at 0, when i can hear it spooling it's on like 2, when it's half whach it's on 5, full throttle 9.

When it's on 5 it has plenty of torque...

Does this mean it's plugged into the wrong vacuum line?

Re: T2 only running 9psi. Any idea's why?

Charles, it's plenty warm while testing. I always wait till it's warm before using high boost.

Not sure what black box your referring too.

Re: T2 only running 9psi. Any idea's why?

i must say, when it's boosting high, i can't hear the turbo anymore due to load whooshing air noise and a small squeil (from actual leak) how do others sound? Maybe i have more leaks besides the squeil.

Re: T2 only running 9psi. Any idea's why?

also, the Dash boost thingy goes all the way up to full, but psi guage only says 9psi...that's less than standard!

T2 only running 9psi. Any idea's why?

My T2 has big exhaust and pod filter. There's a small leak...but it can't be leaking 4 pound? Any idea's why it's only boosting to 9? I'm getting new intercooler soon (and custom piping made up), so leak will be fixed, but i really want to fix this boost problem. Engine feels strong, turbo sounds go...

Re: windscreen replacement

OK, does your windscreen (looking from an angle) have vertical lines you can see built into the screen? It's like an anti fog thingimy... well, you won't get one of them if they break your windscreen. When i got work on my Cabriolet, they quoted $1800 for a new WINDSCREEN! They didn't break it, but ...

Re: CityTurbo.com Stickers!

i was thinking you should use the font (or close to) the one that appears on the race t2's (along the top of the front windscreen).

Re: built in speed alert!!

Charles, which wire is it? what side of the back is it? I can get the instument cluster out easy enough,...

Re: fuel sys setup on non turbo city

i think it's CVCC... My old cabriolet was an 88 model with a double barrel carby, only one is open at low revs and the other allows more fuel at higher rpm's. Not sure how the CVCC system worked... It was an ER 1231cc the same as the turbo, but no fuel injection or turbo and i'm sure their alot diff...

Re: City Turbo is BACK!

haha, april fools day aside...

It's a wonder they haven't done it sooner! There's such a big market in people wanting high power small cars. I can't wait! Do ya think it'll be a good engine for our T2's?
