SupraLEDrears Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 My two main contenders are now whifbitz and SRD. Anyone else want to recommend a few others to step up from 500 to 800? I might only get around 700 on the initial tune but want to leave room for my goal of 800bhp. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burna Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Pretty sure they are the same intercoolers mate. I was advised by my mapper to go for ETS for my driving style, and I'm really glad I did! The quality of the product is very impressive, and it doesn't heat soak even after back to back to back full on pulls! You spend your money and get what you pay for Have a word with Lee at SRD, he ordered mine from the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Style Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Mishimoto 4" is good to 800hp as well I believe. My one seems to be doing well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noz Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 I can second ETS 4 inch is a nice product. I've yet to see a side by side comparison of any pressure drops or temperature drops from manufacturers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do know that a cheaper 5" heat soaks after a couple of back to back pulls, but you get what you pay for, and the ETS is A LOT of money, so just depends on how you want to drive the car I suppose. A purely attending shows/ cars and coffee car would be fine on a cheap chinese one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure hoe my 4inch ets will hold up long term. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to attend some track sessions once my single turbo conversion is complete, I'm assuming I'll be on boost a fair bit. My target of power is about 800bhp, I think the 4" ETS is rated to about 800? If I aim for and want more power in the future the 5" ETS might be a better purchase.
