Thread: Bigger intercooler Def Td5

If it is this one - DA4630 | Performance Intercooler - Defender 90/110 Td5 - 1994-2007 - 60mm deep x 300mm high - then I don't know. I might be wrong but I thought the AC on the Td5 was an international fit and only the Tdi and earlier had the Australian unit

The Puma and Td5 take the same intercooler from Allisport and I believe have the same AC core up front.

Give Andrew at AlliSport a yell,

Performance Intercoolers

Puma & TD5 are the same, the unit from paddocks look the right one, but check with AlliSport.

Remember that simply putting on a bigger inter cooler won't give you something for nothing...

You really need the car re-mapping to be able to take advantage of it, likewise with the VNT.

If suggest you speak to Pete (BAS) and get the inter cooler, VNT and his boost box all at once. As part of that package he'll give you a proper remap with everything setup correctly.

nah i think the early td5's have the Australian fitted air-con.
well my 00 td5 defender does anyway.

I have a 99 td5 defender with an australian fitted a/c. I purchased a bigger britpart intercooler from an Australian supplier and it didnt fit. Reason being the aust a/c condenser goes between the radiator and the intercooler, where the factory fitted a/c condenser sits in front.
I ended up buying one from ASE turbo and it fitted with no worries.

+1 for Allisport, excellent product with excellent service.

if your car is early td5 which aus fit ac it will have a flat nose grill, meaning you can only fit a thinner uk 'ac spec' intercooler upgrade.

Hover ever if you have the latter models with the extended nose cone you can run the uk 'non ac spec' intercooler upgrade.

This is in regards to Allisport intercoolers anyway.

There non ac intercooler is 20mm thicker if i remember corectly which is a lot more cooling capacity.

I'm running a non ac allisport intercooler in my 04 90 which has AC and it fits nicely, but I have removed the ac anyway becuase I dont really see the point of fitting a bigger intercooler then blocking it with a dirty AC condensor.

Hi

is it same as the below attached ?
This has been ordered from alive and already fitted to my td5 .
