Those pipes have cleaned up well.
You should notice a difference going from a type 2 to a type 1. I did when I made that change.

Looks good! Is it a posh branded cooler?
Better response, less lag, slightly higher boost iirc too.

I think I have a 4" holesaw if you need one chris?

So at what revs did the turbo kick in before and after?
I think it would be placebo unless proven.

It's just an apex type 1 which cropped up at a reasonable price. Cheers for the offer Jon but I'll most likely buy some hole saws so I have them in the future if needed.

Chris, what you doing for a battery? I could never be ar5ed to relocate it.

I'm going to go for a smaller battery rotated 90 degrees. Not a fan of relocating either.

That's going to be fun with it say in the garage for long period not being started.
I would suggest adding some kind of charger like solar, and/or some kind of isolator so you can easily disconnect it to stop it draining when not in use.
Trickle charger! My S14 is always hooked up to one, and has never failed to start since (despite weeks/months of inactivity). This is the one I use, and it's awesome:

I use the same one! But of a pain if your car doesn't live in the garage however. Better to disconnect the battery IMO

I dont think Chris has the luxury of plugging the car into the mains.
I don't have power in the garage unfortunately. The smaller battery shouldn't be too bad hopefully. It's a full size battery only designed for a smaller car

Why do people make the pipe runs as short as possible? Changing from longer, smaller pipework to shorter bigger pipework and increasing the core size/galleries in the core is going to reduce pressure. It was about 7 years ago so i have no idea what the difference was now.

I wouldn't say you have anything to worry about, my micra battery has been fine in mine for years *touches wood* with occasionally use. I just disconnect the battery, only annoying thing is having to re-set the radio everytime I drive it...
Why people do a lot of things is beyond me. But unless someone tells me that the turbo spooled up 200 revs quicker with proof of it being the intercooler that achieved this, I would be reluctant to believe it.
There is only a 200 rev difference in spool up between a T28R and a stock T28 so I doubt the pipe run of an intercooler is going to make much difference.

When I changed mine the boost came in sooner and held for much longer through the rev range before feeling like it was struggling.
Hi Daz, sorry if it sounds like I am being difficult but I just want to know. Is the difference 100 revs? 200? It makes no sense to me because once the pipes are pressurised at 0 psi then there should be no difference at all between the time it takes to get to full boost. Imagine a metre long pipe, and a 2 metre long pipe. Block one end and fill them both with water (0psi) now keep the water flowing, remove the cap (thing you used to block one end) and fill a 2 litre jug. Does it take the same amount of time or less?
