How to battle high IAT's with blower?

SalM · 08-13-2018, 10:03 PM

Supercharger guys, what are you guys doing to keep the IAT's down on your blower setups so we dont keep heatsoaking and pulling timing.

I have a meth kit and definitely helps, but my IAT's cruising are still roughly 30 over ambient temp and shoot up another 30ish degrees during pull.

I need something to help keep the car really cool on the street so I can maintain full power and recover very fast.

Anyone have any ice tank experience, or Forced induction interchiller setups ?

The FI Interchiller kits look really good and lots of cars have them installed including the one famous 9 second supercharged C63 and bunch of charts and data etc.

I was told despite putting a chiller setup I would need a trunk tank. (Not sure why) But I suppose moving the coolant reservoir out of the engine bay is a big bonus in itself, plus putting an additional 5 gallon trunk tank to increase the volume of fluid being moved and having the option to use ice as well.

Any recommendation on which trunk tank kit to buy are also appreciated !!

For those who have any first hand experience please chime in !! Thanks everyone !

For reference I have a Gintani Stage X supercharger kit. (Freaking Badass for anyone deciding what blower setup to go with. I'll be posting a whole build thread on here soon of how everything went

)

I wonder what Ice tank kit he used cause Powerhaus closed down. So I wonder if theres a specific company everyone prefers over another for ice tanks and what type of hoses we need etc.

No kit really out there the few I've seen, mine included, were people buying a box and piecing together all of the connections and hoses.

VF also now sells a larger race intercooler for their setups, I feel like I’ve seen someone on here use it on an ESS kit and it was a generic Air/Water intercooler from Summit or Jegs but I can’t remember the thread. Half the price of the VF upgrade, naturally.
