could you redo the graphs using RPM as the x-axis and temp as the y-axis?
great review though!

Dude, just tilt your head sideways to the left.

Thanks!
The RPM is already on the x-axis, and the IATs already on the y-axis (left). The y-axis on the right shows RPMs again, but is used only for the RPM vs. frames plot. Because every data point captured within VCDS corresponds to a unique RPM reading, the RPM plot could be read as RPM on the y-axis (right) and data frame on the x-axis.
For the IAT plot, it references the temperature values on the y-axis (left) and the RPMs on the x-axis.
Sorry if this wasn't more clear! I guess I should have labelled the axes.

Ok, just updated the review now.
1) Added additional comparison criteria for the intercooler table, and added the THS intercooler as a comparison point too.
2) Added axes labels to plots
3) Resized pictures
Also worth mentioning - I just got upgraded to APR Stage 2+ two days ago. Would be nice to see how the intercooler performs with the new tune and fueling solution.

When graphing, the X-axis should start from a value and INCREASE in value as it goes to the right, WITH NO VALUE BEING REPEATED
If you look at your graph, your x-axis start at 2xxx and goes to 45xx then jump down and up as it goes to the right.
Either way, here is some data I dug up of the S3 IC, if you can graph your data like this, I think it will be a lot easier to follow and compare :thumbsup:

Ah, ok, I see what you meant. I separated the 7 runs into 7 separate series on the same graph. Of course, since no RPM value is repeated, the data shows strictly IATs logged with throttle input only (no data points with coasting or braking).

Could be that the IC itself and plumbing is being cooled slightly by the cooled air from the first few runs. It could be warmed significantly above ambient if the car was sitting in the sun or simply not being driven fast to get good airflow in the engine bay and the heat of the engine was baking everything. Just a hypothesis - could be complete crap.

Thanks for the good data. W/r to graph, I think that's actually RPM & IAT vs Time, time being the x-axis, but with RPM indicated along the bottom to provide an exact value for the data points indicated in the RPM plot.
Regardless, it works well to convey the information and easily compare sequential runs.

This is the best picture I can find, since the others were kind of blurry. It's original and not resized.
