my bro who helped me install says it's no problem. the second option was putting it after (infront) the engine radiator. but since, we didn't install there. we can't support that with evidence...
so far, the radiator hose we used are fine. I think the radiator engine is still hotter than intercooler... maybe....
the hoses in pajero are not bendable. they are preset to bend like that permanently. though you can bend them just a little bit.
just measured again the intercooler because I'm not confident in my memory...
incase, you are interested in pajero 1st-2nd gen intercoolers...
the 2.5 inch in 2nd gen height has 3 inch height in the opposite labeled side...
the 18 inch is actualy 16.5 and the 18 inch removable pipe is 14 inch...
the 16.5 inch in 2nd gen is 14 inch in 1st gen and 10 inch remains 10 inch.
you might want to consider intercooler from emina or sportage if fittings are perfect for your vehicle... in my case, Pajero intercooler is the only available here...
mura lang ang surplus intercooler basta may suki or marunong ka mag-tawad... basta parts, kuya ko na pinapabili ko. madali akong lokohin ng mga tindero.
basta kahit anung intercooler na magkakasya, pwede yun??tignan ko options ko, (may matic dip-stick, hoses to the radiator at connector pa kasing sagabal,e..papalitan ko ng muna ng manual tranny para mabawasan ng load)
thanx po, nakakailan ang 3c-turbo mo, consumo(city/hiway mixed ave) at takbo sa highway(speed*rpm)
I am not sure any intercooler puwede... but they say "the bigger intercooler, the better..." I just know emina and sportage surplus are atleast 2.2L engines... should consider pressure drop too. even a longer piping could cause drops...
a little bit pressure drop is acceptable or better. but too much is bad...
the van consumes 8 km/l - 8.5 km/l on mixed city and highway w/aircon 2-3 people load. max 80kph (but the measurements are not relevant. I live far south in the philippines) but the installation really improve consumption and power, that's for sure... if installed perfectly... you will be amazed in climbing uphill...
but I guess, you can't compare it if you have the tranny converted...
mabuti din yung manual. yung Pajero namin is manual tranny converted din. laki rin improvement power at consumption. talo lang sa kambyo at traffic...

hope wala, sumisipa naman nung bago baklasin ang cylinder head... i just wanna know ung pressure na binibigay ng T12 compressor..para may pagsisimulan ako at comparison pag-kabili ko ng boost guage at controller.. gusto ko din kasi i-fabricate ng intercooler itong sasakyan,e...
para kung nagkaroon ng pressure drop, magaadjust ako...
you have a point sir m_ron. buti nalang hindi intercooler/turbo tunning yung thread title...
sir yummy, may diag port din yung amin.. may PCMSCAN & ProScan full version and Engine Analyzer Pro ako, peru wala pa akong pc port sa ngayon, I'm waiting my bro to get back to U.S to buy me one...
though I hear that the ace diags would only give you data related to the petrol engine management & TEMS.
but I want to try despite it... and all other vehicles I will encounter....
just PM me kung interesado ka sa software...

ganito kasi ang opened diagnosis port ko, ewan ko kung pareho po tayo...

kung may makakaturo nga connections para makagawa ako ng custom port, or makakatranslate ng codes sa may gilid, it will be a great start...kung makakakuha siya, count me in, hope di mahal ang port na yun...

hmmm.. got me curious sir yummy.. hehe.. 4g63T po ba ay yung nasa Lancer EX? or yan po yung sa Galant? magkano raw po yung selling price nung engine? kasya kaya siya sa A174A Lancer Box?
waw.. nakaka-luha naman yung makina na yun.. DOHC na pala.. 2.0L yun i bet? hehe.. may nakita akong taga OSM na naglagay ng ganyang engine sa boxtype niya.. he said, kelangan pa yatang pukpukin yung firewall papasok para mag-fit.. huhu.. nakaka-luha ren yung presyo..
tanong ko pa po about supercharger naman, mabigat na load din po ba ang supercharger sa engine like an aircon compressor? or "sabay sa ikot" lang ang supercharger?
