Got my car from kraftwerks a week ago and it's amazing hopefully once the production oil cooler kit is released I will get that on the car too. What radiator are you guys running?

I'm currently stock, that's going to change I'm sure after one summer in AZ. I plan on logging allot to see what my temps are before just spending the money. I do plan on getting the oil cooler though.

may the schwartz be with you....

RE dynoed car March 15 boost lost now seen AT 6 RPM 1.5 POUNDS of boost lost. Spoke with KW sent all the info to them waiting on there reply from what i got from them it looks like they know about the issue, and have had the same issue with there BRZ that they are testing on ....

So without directions I took out the IC thinking the oil cooler would go behind it but nope, it's behind the parking lights. Good news for me since the APR bumper ducts will blow air right at it.

Not done yet. Lines are a tight fit at the cooler.

Gah! Tapatalk started letting us attach photos again but it always doubles them up. SO annoying.

Not sure what the hoopla is all about - anyone got a dyno run with a boost plot to see what you're talking about?

Here's mine with both the JRSC and KWSC - no issues in boost whatsoever.

So... how much airflow is there in that location? Do they have you cut the fender liner?

I didn't receive instructions Mike. I'm just winging it. I noticed their car had liners removed in earlier pictures and I think that's the intent with this location. They mentioned there would be 2 mounting locations available, 1 behind p lights and the other behind IC. I only received brackets for the p light location.

This is a pre-production kit so it's still being refined with input from people like Omar and myself. This location will work well for me with my APR bumper that isn't utilizing the duct hoses.

sorry heres the first dyno as u can see no issues , so something is going on

sw20kosh · 03-25-2014, 01:46 PM

I would say belt slip at higher RPMS causing less boost... but there is no way the KW setup can have belt slip can it? I thought the pulleys were cogged?
