Re: Half way through CC install....

Ive heard people say this is something to do with the air con before, on the GT4 the pipe goes into a sensor, a pipe then goes straight from this sensor into the plenum chamber, ive connected mine straight to the plenum.

Re: which radiators for st205 charge cooler install

The cooling system on the charge cooler is seperate to the one on the engine so shouldnt cause overheating unless youve done something very wrong! I am using 2 bike rads of Triumph speed triples, I am installing them soon so will let you know about the temperature drops across them, 1 may be enough ...

Re: Which chargecooler?

Is the front mounted pre rad really worth the hassle? Im in the middel of an ST205 CC conversion and was gonna use a rad off a large engined motorcycle with the standard IC fan, mounted in the same position as the standard IC, would this not be good enough?
