Post JL powercooler?

What is it? I have been to his website and all it says it can cool air temps by up to 90* what is it?

There is no pic or anything and I have seen it in peoples sigs and have no idea what it is.

Thanks
Paul

Cool

pgio,

Here is pic of my JL cooler. You fill it with ice and the intercooler fluid circulates through it making the blower nice and cool

give ole Johnny a call and tell him Speedin Bob sent ya...

In a nutshell, it is an insulated metal box with a coil of tubing inside (forget the length) that attaches to your existing intercooler plumbing.

Add a bag of ice at the track, turn on the intercooler pump, and watch your temps and times drop.

You will have to relocate the battery.

...yup, and also if you hit the drag strip, you will need to mount a MANDATORY Kill switch when you relocate the battery to the rear. Most tracks dont check, but better safe than sorry. Ask JL, he could tell you how to get it all connected properly.

Rule of thumb is 1% Hp increase for every 10 degrees of intake air temp reduction.
