How much to do the water to air ic？
No idea. It was in the car when I bought it. They had modded the stock intercooler to take water. I figured this was a bit dumb so I made a heat exchanger for the front of the car from a Triumph Dolomite Sprint radiator.

UPDATE - the car is now complete and is ready for the track. The dyno tune went well and if anything the car ran too cool! Luckily it was a cold night, as the intercooler wasn't working. It's fixed now though - it was a bad electrical connection to the coolant pump.
I have entered a regularity event at Eastern Creek South circuit on the 29th of September. I'll be treating it like a test day. Hopefully the car will finally be reliable! I'm really looking forward to it. It's been a long hard road to get to this point.

Nice work.
If you need a hand let me know.

Thanks mate. Appreciated. Send an Email to charles@jardine.net.au to get the details. Only experienced drivers can enter. You will be fine. Just introduce yourself and tell him how much track driving you have done. It's a regularity event so isn't a race as such.

The car went very well today. Lots of power though the 3 year old tyres showed their age.
No overheating this time. Yay!
I'm very rusty though. I need a lot more track time to get my modjo back

Nice work. Did you compete in the AASA round or the North circuit?
