I do enough fighting and argueing on all the import boards I am on, I really enjoy the Buicks and I think the biggest reasons I do is I have nothing to sell or prove to anyone. For that reason I honestly don't care to go any further with this.
I didn't come here to beat my chest as I am fully aware of the fact that most Buick guys could care less if I ran a 5 second pass with any car other than a Buick. While for the most part a turbocharger/intercooler on any car and the results with them could be very important, I did forget "who" I am dealing with, and I apologize.
I did come across rude, your right, so I take it all back. I'd rather keep friends in this particular community rather than share information, it makes it much more fun to hang out at all the events and not worry about who you might be talking to that you think you like but was actually a butthole behind his keyboard.
The topic at hand was who had the best intercooler, atleast that is what I think it was.
My point was to do a test that is easier for anyone to try why not do a test on them like this:
1. Cruise the car so the MAT or AIT, whichever you are using, is completely stable. In otherwords it has gotten as close to ambient air temps as it is going to get.
2. Slow or stop the car and then go to WOT and run it through the gears.
3. Note the temps at the beginning of the run and at the end of the run.
The only other thing that could be added to this for an even better test would be PSI before and after the intercooler.
That is a good test.
BTW, I was wrong on my testing with my TR yesterday. I heard on the weather the day before it was suppose to be 44 degrees. 2-3 hours AFTER I did the testing with the sun shining I noticed on my back porch the thermometer read 49 degrees. I am even more impressed with the particular intercooler I am running on my car now.
