New Dyno Run Update on Project BMW 135I

Dan — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 23:27:24 +0000

We just did a new dyno with the current mods on the car to see how it reacted. It is very nice outside with an ambient temperature of about 80F. The car is running Agency Power Catless Downpipes, Agency Power Exhaust with Ti Tips, Agency Power Intercooler, JB3 ECU, Riss Racing Intake. We run a Mustang Dyno which reads a bit lower then some of the DynoJets runs out there. We were running pump gas of 91 octane. The made an impressive 322 rwhp and 375 ft/lbs of torque. Once we remove the center pipe and run race gas, I bet we see 350 wheel horsepower. More info coming up!

Nitrous Express Ntercooler Kits

Cole Kelly — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 18:20:15 +0000

With the addition of the NX Ntercooler kit to our project 997TT, a few new products have been added to our catalog. Nitrous Express has a kit designed to reduce intercooler temperatures and, in turn, increase horsepower to your turbo charged car.

How does this work? Air-to-Air intercoolers are designed to dissipate heat through the use of bar and plates or fins. The large surface area of your intercooler allows the heat to be transferred from the hot air in the engine to the intercooler and out into engine bay. The problem with this arises when your car is exposed to higher temperatures for longer durations during drag racing, track racing or even spirited driving. The solution to this is to allow even greater heat transfer by temporarily providing a burst of cold, moist air directly onto the intercooler.

Enter NX Ntercooler kits. With the ability to spray nitrous directly onto your intercooler, heat is transferred from the aluminum into the nitrous where it condenses and evaporates leaving you much cooler and with more power.

NX has a kit for dual intercooled cars such as our blue beat 997TT or single intercooler cars such as the STi’s and EVO’s. Check them all out here – Intercooler Spray Kits
