    The intercooler fins acts as cooler when air go thru those fins. Parang radiator lang yan. If it is sealed correctly hindi makakapasok ang tubig sa linya nun, then safe sa water fording at walang masisira.

    On the downside, remember the laws of physics. Any hot metal or steel submerged under water will produce as what machine shops call "hot spots". These spots are harder and will not function properly on certain occasions. Unless machined and removed.

    I was pointing out the internal parts. I assume wala namang tagas yan so it is safe on water fording.

    Alin ba ang tinatakpan? Yung turbo mismo o yung intercooler coils/fins?

    Yup. As i recall, the turbo was running quite hot because humataw kami sa Lahar. Then came the river crossing. Sandali lang naman siguro nalublob yung Pajero. For sure nalublob yung turbo coz my foglamps (which are mounted on the grille) were damaged (inabot ng tubig).

    Kapag binasa mo ang intercooler, parang binabasa mo lang ang radiator. Only difference is air ang laman ng intercooler, hindi tubig. Sealed iyan. Diba hindi naman lumalabas ang coolant mula sa fins ng radiator?

    As for the turbo, in theory pwedeng masira iyan dahil sa sudden surge of cold water. Pero buhay pa din ang turbo ko after all my 'aquatic' adventures. :mrgreen:

    Btw, the intercooler does not suck air for the turbo. It just cools the air that has passed through the air filter.

    maybe it cools the air that has passed through the air filter and turbo.
