What is V-Mount Cooling?
Radiator and Intercooler placed in V shape configulation call V-Mount and it's a standard feature in WRC world for the best cooling efficiency. Power Enterprise further improved the system layout to be applied to circuit race and rally. The combination of highest efficiency intercooler and radiator cores and its layout made #1 choice cooling system in the rally and road course racing teams in the world. Why the V-mount so popular? The V-formated Mounting enables to flow the cooling air uninterrapted and to retain the short intake piping
that provides better boost response than the tipical front mount intercooler systems. The intercooler is mounted vertically and the radiator is palaced approximately 45 degrees
angle, see image below. The POWER Cool power V is applicable and work with stock
power setting to 500+ high powered turbo systems. The kit is designed to work with air conditioner and transmission oil cooler equipped GDBs. The installation requies minor modifications without loosing any strucural integrity. |

The V-mount kit is designed to work with stock turbocharger
configuration. To make the kit work with Power's RX6R turbo
kit, it requires fablication of pipings.

The Power Intercooler for the V-mount constructed with streight outer fins
for improved air flow withou sacrificing the heat dissapation efficiency |
|
The image above shows the tapered Inlet which helps prevent unwanted vortex, maximizing the air density, resulting in better engine response. |
All Power Intercooler uses "Off Set Inner Fins" with single row
design which can maximize the area of fin surface per given
volume of the tube. |
You can choose either top or bottom cooler to be either
P.S. or T/M cooling, but do not cross the hoses. |
Hose between the over flow tank and the radiator |
The twin electric fans helps in superior
cooling even for slow traffic conditions

Double Row Raidiator for the V-Mount
|
Double Row Raidiator
The cores of
radiators in the market has been thickened from single to double row,
double to triple row, increasing the volume of coolant. But the disadvantage with the thick cores is restriction of the air flow, passing through the fins, consequently the cooling efficiency becomes worse and the temparature in the engine room become high. We all know the #1 factor for any mechanism failure is "HEAT". The heat deteriorates the engine performance and the integrity of material structure.
The solution to the mentioned is the PWR lightweight, low cost, all-aluminum Double Row
Radiator.

All-aluminum, Double Row, Large Capacity & Light Weight Radiator, High efficiency fins
Analyzing water flow, we decided the optimum fin pitch, fin height, and
louver pitch. Turbocharged cars, for example, have an intercooler or a
condenser blocking off cool air in front of a radiator. Furthermore, heat
tends to stay between an intercooler and a radiator, so the efficiency
of the radiator is difficult to be displayed. PWR developed a radiator
considering how to prevent heat, send cool air smoothly to the engine
room and control rise in temperature . These are especially effective
when driving in expressways at high load and provide high output, stabilizing
the temperature of water and lowering the temperature of the air taken
in to the engine room.
Reinforced thin flat tube
We developed thinner, stronger material for radiator tube. Aluminum
is difficult to radiate, so we made tube thin in order to greatly improve
radiation.
