    Intercooler

    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.

    LOL thanks but a debate with the boss will take longer than that.
    sleeping with the dog tonight over the last debate for lockers and a body lift .

    boss "how much bloody money do you want to spend on this friggen thing"

    ME " but love its necessary, and anyway you wont get out and push" i think this was a tactical mistake on my behalf.

    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.
