Stillen Air to Air setup

TopgunZ · 01-28-2016, 07:56 AM

Interesting. Right now I think I am the only one who has gotten this to work out good. So good in fact that I am searching forums for a good used V1 Ti or Si trim head unit. Those can be taken to higher RPM's, you can use COGs safely on them, and they max out at 26psi vs. the 22psi mine is rated for. I wouldn't be doing that if I felt my setup was not adequate. My intake temps are barely above ambient.

Now hearing its still going to be w2a is a bit disappointing. So I'm guessing the only redesign they will do is move those MAF's post blower. Which still kind of sucks. The MAF's will now read ultra hot temps since the intercooler will be after the mafs themselves. So the car will still not be able to understand how to advance or retard timing. Plus that tiny aftercooler sucks ballz. It would be safer to run higher boost, but power wise it is still going to be on the bottom of the barrel. Sure, someone might get on the dyno and rip a near 500whp pull, but that is a dyno queen world, not the real world. Once heat soak takes hold on the street, which will happen quickly, then that thing will lose hp like crazy.

Any chance of your setup getting reproduced? Seems like the interest is there.

Ive thought about it. But when you have guys that are much better at that sort of thing, (BP), then I didn't want to make a competition about it. Sasha still states he is going to pursue this in the summer. He is a good TIG welder, I suck.

If I did I would just model everything I have on my car in CAD then send it out to a third party to have everything made up. This would take some time but the kit would be pretty sweet. I do however have a 3 stall heated garage now so I can actually work on something out there.
