Thread: intercooler upgrades?

I fitted an allard full front intercooler to my 300tdi 110, once the pump was tuned to suit-very happy, there[allards] tuning info that came with the intercooler was nothing more than turning the diaphram in the injector pump.
make sure they take the vat off when purchasing, i also have an allisport wider radiator[they were easier/keener to deal with imho]

positive or negative points ????

I fitted an Alisport intercooler to my Puma. I now find myself looking for an 8th gear

ps. I found myself looking for the 7th gear after my BAS remap

Naks,

My car will be out of warranty this Sunday morning (21 April 2013) and I'm going down the same route as you.

I've already made contact with the guys at Bell Auto and once Paypal and my bank can get their ducks in a row, I'll be placing an order.

I read the thread on your intercooler installation and reading this you're pretty happy with the improvement?

Now I've just got to work out which one suits the Aussie spec 2.4 (with or without aircon) as apparently the non aircon one fits the aircon equiped Aussie spec vehicles (or something like that...)

Cheers,

Lou

Yes it does, but Allisporf recommended I just go with the A/C model to make life easier. Haven't fit around to fitting it yet though...

Like Naks,

I have done the BAS and the Alisport intercooler.

Also fitted a de-cat and centre muffled removal pipe

Hi Drover,

Did you get the pipes from Alli or someone local?

If local, off the shelf or custom/ mandrel bent for you?

Cheers,

Lou

Hey Lou,

Both of the pipes are TeraFirma, mandrel bent-stainless steel.

Been on for the past 2 1/2 year, no problem - all good.

A good tip is if you fit the decat pipe, do a ceramic glass heat wrap while the pipe is off. Massive improvement in cabin heat is there for a $70 investment.

Cheers
Grant

I must still get around to doing a de-cat.

Did you do both at the same time? I'm wondering if removing the centre muffler is worth it?
