just never knew about the dots,and now I do lol. made the inlet open late (so less fuel and air) and shut late (letting 25psi compression out of each cylinder)

thats what was my issue recently,cams were out by just one tooth.made huge difference

now i have the better cooler thats alot more free flowing and bigger i want some real temp measurements from it so that i can see how efficient it is.
i will do this by having a sensor before and after the cooler,this will give an idea of what the coolers doing.
i tapped into the elbow thats just ONE INCH away from the turbo outlet.i used a bicycle valve and silcone to make a feed for the sensor. then made my sensor "body" out of an old vacuum t-piece.
.
.
this sensor will give an accurate view of temps from turbo BEFORE the cooler does its bit.
next up i need to fit the AFTER cooler sender......

so today i fitted up the new intercooler and also the new rad , all with custom brackets.
first i had to angle grind the old mounts away / unbolt them
cleaned and then sprayed chassis
brackets lined up and bolted and lastly painted also
cleaned and re-sprayed the chassis
upper bracket fabricated,sprayed then secured
intercooler was to big,so i chopped the core very slighty and made it fit very well.
.
chopping intercooler
intercooler pipes are bit bodged for now as i used of cuts to make up new pipe.
hopefully my cooling issues are sorted

fautly gauge would be my thinking. your cars in good order and well maintained,and running such low boost its hugely unlikely to be making them temps .
