The Pro Alloy stuff is sick. There intercooler and crashbar are awesome. If you are going aftermarket crashbar in my opinion there is no better. I am not sure you can buy it without their intercooler.
There radiators are really nice as well.
I am happy with the Mountune though. My temps are down a good 10 degrees. Thats cool you can go see Jason in person. I am probably going to get some of his tunes on the next sale.
Yeah, according to Ron, both the Pro Alloy and the Mountune do actually have a smaller coolant capacity than the Mishi, but that is NOT the sole/only factor in maintained low coolant temps by a given radiator. [wink]

You are correct flow design really can make a difference the Mountune I believe is a triple pass cross flow. Thats an optimized flow pattern. I am sure its the same deal with the Pro Alloy.

Oh look what we have here a new Whoosh Motorsports Aluminum cold F7E587C4-6973-4B60-814C-6C6BD882E119.jpeg side charge pipe in Crinkle Black . Per D-Resonants findings actually helps in keeping your charge temps cooler
Going in shortly provided I start early enough in the day to install with the fricken heat. Lol

Dave, have you used the Federal 595 SS or just the 595 RS? I’m looking at the Federal too cause ST needs new tires.

Hi Bryan , Ya I would say do not get the 595 SS they are old and did not have a good rep. I did use the 595 EVO on my P10 Infiniti G20 and it was not bad. These tires are miles away better than those though. Stiffer sidewalls,stickier, lol
I almost bought the RSR’s which are supposed to be pretty good too. I just decided to spend more and try out the RS Pro.

So did a little thing this week, yup installed rear camber plates 1.8 degrees negative Camber! Did a test run on part of Angeles Crest today and combined with the RS Pro’s the car now has a whole new much higher level of breakaway. I am going to say its way up there.

I should add the S280 is an awesome Turbo. Picked the car up from the Tuner on Sat and it was causing clutch slippage above 25lbs of boost in higher gears on the dyno.
Its now just silly fun and completely ticket worthy.
Brakes up next EBC Yellows with EBC rotors being shipped as we speak.
