something a bit more matched for our sized turbos;

this is extreme for showing my point;
seal up a 55 gallon drum and make a quarter sized hole and blow into the drum to pressurize it.
now take a gallon jug or 2 liter soda bottle and blow into it to pressurize it.
which one do you think is going to be easiest on ya and which could you pressurize first? obviously you couldn't even pressurize the far extreme of a 55 gallon drum in the first example and im not saying that 3" pipe and a massive 6.uh oh after cooler would be so extreme as that..........but if the gallon jug scenario was all you needed to keep your charged air cooled back down to close to ambient temps,wouldn't you then rather have the quick and snappy fast spooling,easier to pressurize system,rather than one that blocks off a lot of radiator and drops it's efficiency needlessly? do you really want to make your turbo work so hard as that?
if we could have our cake and eat it too,the turbo wouldn't heat up the air and we wouldn't need intercoolers,no matter how much fuel we added.but unfortunately that's exhaust spinning the wheel,which in turns spins the other and that heat gets transferred so the more fuel we add,the higher the levels get.....but to what extent does it take to properly cool it back down to where it was before the turbo warmed it up? does it take so much volume as 3" pipe and a 6.oh no cooler? i don't think so,or i would have pulled what i built and install that.i don't see over 900 EGT's very often.when i do,that's usually with the truck and dump trailer full of green wood @ WOT and max gross rating of the truck.
