When are you going to spill the beans on this new intercooler. Are you the crash test dummy for this?? You sure can keep a good secret!!!

 

just don't call it the Boost Gain System!

Matt

 

stock 6.25 x 10.75 x 1.88 = 126.31
Alta 10 x 1.5 x 15.5 = 232.50
GTT 9.38 x 11.38 x 2.13 = 227.37

on the measurements your using.. The alta is Total outside not just the Finned area inside the diverters. While both the stock and the GTT are.

GTT outside 10.125 x 14.875 x 2.375 = 357.69

just for interest. sake.. but Dr. and 69 are correct in what there saying.

 

I'll take the Griffin Al radiator out of my mustang, and duct tape in on the front of the Mini. Who needs a scoop!

g00d stuff happenin' here

 

Soooo....did I tell you we got 6 inches of snow last night? At least you guys are still driving your Mini:impatient :impatient :impatient

 

Wimp! I drove through 7" and parked in our unplowed parking lot here at work. Of course, I'm not sure I'll be able to get out.

 

I hear it's still coming down over there...you'll likely be burried

 

yea we got sum but not as much as u guys did actually its already meltin' away

 

Nope, it's all done. Sky is blue and sun is shining. Someone finally plowed our parking lot so there is now a 14" island of snow around each car. :impatient

 

Mine's been washed/waxed and stuck in the garage for the past month:impatient :impatient :impatient Starting the MOTD06 countdown.....AAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

 

Appreciate the info -

I'm leaning between the Alta of GTT but nothing wrong with GRS either - anyone will be an enhancement over stock.

PS - its 78 degrees here in Nassau today . Just another shitty day in paradise.

I decided to give the GTT IC a try and ordered it yesterday. I'll post back sharing install experience, thoughts and comments.

 

I have been looking at what is out there in this area and I am very interested in your results. Thanks in advance for taking the time to provide the information

 

good to hear.. yes pls report i want to know what the 3 pc Diverter is. if it has changed from when i got mine or not.. then i can bug Roland for some updates to mine

 

Mugami shared his GTT IC sliding problem, I read on the MINI2 Board that Roland was developing a fix kit so I contacted him asking him if by any chance he had included the kit in my purchase. I just got an email and he said that he had included the kit in my order. He even provided a pic so I thought I would share it with you guys.


I don't know why I can't copy paste so I put the pic in my gallery for you to see or click on this.

Now i'm getting excited about recieving a package from England

 

Any word of the 3 piece diverter mentioned by Mugami?

 

I haven't gotten it yet but once opened on Xmas day will post.

 

(. Y .)

 

Matt

 

joker did it first!

( . Y . )

 

snitch

 

Well the box arrived but now I have to wait until Xmas .

I did open the box (rational to ensure that it was not damaged ) and there is NO 3 PIECE DIVERTER - there is a left and right side diverter but no "3rd piece". I did get the "fix kit" - apparently one of the first ones - so thats good news.

I will document the install and I will follow up w/ Roland.

 

spoke with Roland.. its only suppose to be a two pc diverter.. he is going to update the website. Also is coming out with his own boots Simular to the ones im now running. But of course claims hes running 19lbs of boost with stock boots and no problems. Didnt want to mention that im running around 22lbs =). Which i was only able to do after fixing the Bypass vaulve. He also mentioned about the sprayer thats comming out soon. . My next purchase from him will be the Tention pulley with stop and replacement Filter for the intake. I like having a spare.
