Turbo question?

[954DR]

ArturboGSR98 - I appreciate the pics & info. From your list it appears that the kits have similar components. As you mentioned, the DRAG does look like it has more extras.

I have some other questions about the DRAG kit:
1. "Larger efficient front mount intercooler" - Do you know the specific dimensions?
2. "Chrome one piece intercooler and turbo piping" - Is this also 2.25" like the Rev Hard kit?
3. You mentioned the pre turbo filter wasn't included on the Rev Hard kit - Does the Rev Hard kit include a wastegate dump tube?

I appreciate your help.

You sure about that? I mesured mine the other day and it was prety close(if not smaller) then the measurements for the IC on the RevHard you listed. Of course I dont remember what they were sooooooooo....

1. "Larger efficient front mount intercooler" - Do you know the specific dimensions?I dont know the exact demensions of the Drag, but Drag is longer while Rev-hard is thicker.
2. "Chrome one piece intercooler and turbo piping" - Is this also 2.25" like the Rev Hard kit?I cant remember, but Im 95% sure it is
3. You mentioned the pre turbo filter wasn't included on the Rev Hard kit - Does the Rev Hard kit include a wastegate dump tube?No dump Tube for Rev-hard

ArturboGSR98 - Thanks 4 info.

Last thing - on the hondatech board ITR-481 stated "The rev hard manifold is a way better design the the drag because of the location of the WG..... the WG is located so far up on the #4 runner on the drag manifold your car can still get boost when the WG is all the way open."

Can anyone else verify this?

Well when you have a boost gauge it still reads what ever boost setting you have. I would say that is a myth. But I would say the only advantage Rev-hard manifold has Drag is that Im sure it flows better.

What about the issue of notching/filing down the block to make the DRAG manifold fit correctly? Any truth to that?

2 other questions:
1.Do you think I need to upgrade a larger radiator (eg Fluidyne) to cope with the heat generated from the turbo system?
2. Anyone have the FAL fans on their car & what do they think of them?
