I think you have to work with what you have and use the closest fit that you can get. I'll take a video of the intercooler doing it's job and lowering the EGT's.
You can deal with theoreticals and actuals, the theoreticals being the perfect model and the actuals being the results of what you are using. You can keep spending money and adding more bells and whistles but eventually your gains get smaller and smaller percentage wise - and at what cost? If you have a 1HZ and you turbo it it is awsome depending on what turbo you are running, add an intercooler and you'll see more benefit, add a boost compensator and see better fuel economy and better performance, remove the air to air intercooler and replace it with a glycol/air intercooler and see better performance, chop off the stock exhaust and add a mandrel bent 3 or 4 inch pipe and see more gains, port and polish the intake and exhaust manifolds and the head and see even more gains. Get the idea?
Turbo your rig, when you can afford an intercooler add one, if you don't believe an intercooler works then do more research until you find out that it does if installed properly.
Dougal, If i use a heat detector on a turbo compressor are you saying that I will only get somewhere over 100 degrees? Not trolling - just asking a question.
