That I know yes the more dense and cold the better, intercooler makes a use difference and allows more boost without detonation etc. Effieciency range I am close to but can push the boost a little more without compromosing that.
Sorry Bratjie don't want to hi-jack. Did you calculate your engine flow etc on a turbo map for the waterboxer?

Re: Mild 1600TP Turbo engine
Hi, no problem mate, I calculated 377 cfm or 26.39 lb/min or 10.7 cm/min, the following turbo's would be suited : Garret GT2056, GT 2252 etc, but I'm slapping on the T3 that the engine came with and check it out from there, holding thumbsWentzel wrote:That I know yes the more dense and cold the better, intercooler makes a use difference and allows more boost without detonation etc. Effieciency range I am close to but can push the boost a little more without compromosing that.
