As I understand it, water to air works well on petrol powered road cars where the boost is only in relatively short bursts and the water in the cooler gets some adiabatic cooling between bursts of high boost, they rely a lot on thermal mass.
Turbo Diesels run boost for long periods of time so they heat up the water & become less efficient.

Heya bloke. Yeah out of Frozenboost. ordered 1st June, here 13th but spent more time in OZ than anywhere else en-route.Quote:

Also costs a psi or 2 with the 1/2k of plumbing from turbo to inlet. This lot should reduce egt's without boost loss.
They are a very solid unit the boxier one must weigh between 2-3 kg!
Both those units and the fillers cost less delivered than a single pwr unit. Very pleased!
Is the bigger one a type 17 1200hp core?Quote:

Cool. The type 17 is a 1200hp core and same shape as the one pictured. Currently using one on a patrol with around 200hp. In the process of getting a manifold fabricated that incorporates the core into it.Quote:

I reckoned water ingress from both ends and egress from centre. This of course led to arguments re welding/sealing at those ends of the core.
I backed down on it to get the build bloody well done. I do have a spare manifold tho. Will be giving it further thought as time allows!
