CBRD- RAD Full and other bits

Just to let everyone know- we havent stopped pushing our development of the stock housing RAD turbo for those that dont want to switch to the evo X setup- (for various reason)-

We aren't saying that isnt a viable option (as often argued) but many want the 100% OEM ralliart look-

We are testing a RAD FULL design next week- that adds a new aero turbine upgrade to the existing RAD LITE comp and wastegate upgrade-

We will post results-

Also- our EVO X and RA intercoolers are now slightly larger- and have nicer tanks than previously due to some revisions made in our production process!

I will post pictures shortly!

Cheers

Can't wait for the results! I've been trying to decide between RAD Lite and X swap for quite some time now. Favoring the fast spool of the RAD, but wish I could get another 40-50 HP out of it. Any predictions on the spool and HP capabilities of the RAD Full vs Lite?

I talked to Chad about that and asked the same question. He told me a few things but being that this is the first time the turbo is going to be tested nothing can be said for sure about what will happen yet until after it is installed and hits the dyno.

One thing that Chad did tell me was the purpose of the upgrade was to also increase efficiency of the turbo.

If everything goes as planned as soon as I pick my car up ill post all the wonderful data and mods list for everyone to see.

So, what exactly are ALL the differences between the RAD lite and RAD full? I'm kind of confused now.

That's little consolation to those of us(like me) who bought the original CBRD Ralliart specific FMIC when it first came out a couple years ago!

Did I miss an earlier thread that explains the concept behind this prototype?

Chad told me but I will let him chime in and explain. He is the better person to explain it to everyone

There is no affect on performance-

its simply a production change to make things more efficient for us with production-

your core is capable of 700+hp- have you hit that limit yet??

Maybe ill need to think about getting the RAD Full in the future if all comes out good. CBRD have been great even tho im not even near them. always looking at what could be added next but still stay true to being a Ralliart rather than an EVO X look-a-like

CBRD,

If I wanted to do the upgrade on my ralliart turbo, should I wait until CBRD full is complete and available?

I know many of you have sent me PMs and are wondering the status of the Rad Full install . Chad is currently putting the finishing touches on everything. I will have my car back soon. I will be posting a full video, picture and written review for all to see. I will go over all the details and how everything feels, works etc.
As always CBRD continues to amaze me. They really are on top of the game. I urge all of you to support Chad and his great company. It is through the success of CBRD that we may continue to benefit with all the wonderful advances for our cars.
