Adding an intercooler

[orly_andico]

the intercooler basically makes your turbo more effective and lets you use more boost. but turbo engines with *no* intercooler are almost nonexistent, and it makes no sense (well very little sense..) to put an intercooler on a non-turbo engine (mag cold air intake ka nalang in that case...)

yebo,

Actually, hindi pa confirmed if 2.5 or 3.0 yung ilalagay sa 4x2 diesel. I'm just planning ahead, just in case 2.5 yung ilagay.

... for example u add a big front mount intercooler to ah... let's say a 200SX, may gains ba? stock turbo pa rin pero pinatapang mo lang itsura with a front mount intercooler.

Aesthetics I guess... astig!!! alisin na rin un front bumper para expose na expose talaga un intercooler.

there are gains but typically this is needed if you up the boost. you will actually have a pressure drop with a bigger intercooler leading to increased lag and maybe slightly less boost.

adding an FMIC to a non turbo engine = 0 gains

meron bang local car dito sa atin na gas engine na meron turbo at intercooler,
yung mga cars sa WRC eh 2.0 gas yun diba? o mali ako?

yeah, the mitsubishi evolution and subaru impretza were both sold locally both by dealers and grey market importers.
