change from fmic to water-to-air setup?
 

i currently have a fairly large fmic with piping n blah blah blah, i wanna minimize pressure drop. i researched a bit n found out how an air to water setup works n blah blah blah

i guess a normal water-to-air setup will only cool for about the first 5 mins, but if i get a kit or make a kit that has the mini radiator with a fan n what not its good for daily driving? i wanna maximize cooling for the radiator n minimize pressure drop... currently im havin issues with overheating n this is why i wanna convert to water-to-air system to open up the hole in my bumper.. is it worth doing? where's the cheapest place to get a kit or is it easy to jus build a small kit? thanks

i hate this catagory of the forum, why did someone move it this forum gets no love... this is a kinda general topic fitted in the general catagory, did i say i hated this catagory in the forum?

stfu. It is forced induction related.

Most Daily driver Water-2-air IC's have a resevoir and or radiator to disipate heat.

stay out of my thread queer, useless... n this is the slowest section on the board, look as a response all i got was you n it had nothing to do with anything i asked you idiot.

things i want answered:

1. is it worth it to change over?
2. will it reduce heat during all times or stop working after a while
3. the mini radiator n pump with resevoir is necessary
4. will i gain anything from this or is it the same thing, if so this is why ill do it

get a rope ------, we hate forced induction

1. Yes, if done right.
2. it will reduce heat during all times
3. isn't a question
4. less lag, but you'd have to datalog your IM temps before and after to see what would be best on the SR20.

I'd just stick with a FMIC. It's easier, you already have it, and it's less ---- to deal with. That being said, there's a reason why most high HP drag cars (turbo, obviously) rock a W2A ic.
