At the moment on ebay there is a 300tdi replacement intercooler with a 50%larger copacity 4 sale. Just wondering what I could expect in increases with this mod alone or would it be necessary 2 tweak the pump & do the exhaust as well 2 get any real gains? Im not all that keen on tweaking the pump:(.
Cheers Dean.

bigger intercoolers are a good thing on all turbodiesels but you need to be wary of poorly designed ones that increase the boost lag they still offer the same benefits just a couple of seconds later than good ones.

If you look at the username they are being sold by the same member from this very forum - Jase . By all accounts they work well.

Does anyone have any dyno figures to support the improvement? Pat
