Only an issue on cars that go beyond stage 2 tuning (750hp+ Hybrid/Big turbo cars) As above, Forge have come up with a solution.

No one has yet sorted a worthy solution. Forge is a bigger water/heat exchanger on the front of the car good for heat soak as more volume. But the real issue is the size and flow capability of the one under the hood. This remains the bottle neck and im not sure how you would go about improving on a scale needed for the high outputs needed if can as so small a space. Its now been a while too with many inc us looking... Anything thats made serious numbers on the V8 TFSI has been on air-air smic

Is also another option much like Forge from AMS see here : https://www.amsperformance.com/cart/alp ... ystem.html

Not to put doubts on times shared but Just a word of warning on Vbox times and how to get a more trusted baseline for your performance, from experience and being involved with record boards.

Screen shots really cant be trusted at all if looking to compare or use for your own as a 100% trusted figure..give a idea nothing more. Thing with Pbox is it does not compensate for and gradient so you can either be faster or slower then on the flat.

To use a Vbox time as record best. Few things I myself carry out and most boards do that list records ive found.

1. I verify the DNB data file on racelogic own site this will show hopefully if anomaly or irregularity I.e maybe a road bridge or something to loose signal. Will say valid or not. But word of warning Racelogic will validate a up or down hill run and allows a % depending on selected mode i.e 100-200.

2. Once verified as valid I use software on my PC that seems to be the trusted and used across boards and forums now. dbscanner compensates for gradients and gives a corrected figure. Example my own RS4 B5 best 100-200 was 7.0 on screen but 6.9 on racelogic website and valid/verifed, but after looking at data was down hill but appeared flat from memory. I only try runs on the flat as whats the point right ! As I expect most do or you would hope...But anyway was recorded as 2% down hill, yet still a valid 6.965sec by Racelogic.. Once the data/Dnb file went into DBscanner my PB time was now 7.39sec and what is shared and trusted on boards inc our TTE one.
So you see need look deeper if quoting and sharing times. Im still chasing a 6sec 100-200 time but feel maybe not in the car. Waiting on a really cold snap haha

Have also had times verified then corrected and improved a time (30-130mph).
