    TD5 disco intercooler upgrade

    About to purchase a larger intercooler for my 2001 TD5 disco. 'ASE' advertise one for $900. 'TRS' advertise one for a little more and it looks a little different. 'British Off Road' told me they have one for around the $1200 mark. Was offered a 2A disco cooler for $450 but decided to go for the bigger ones on offer. Any opinions or experiences out there which might influence my choice would be greatly appreciated . Thanks, Geoff

    Do a search,there are a few threads on here about these.
    I believe they are a mongrel to fit on the D2,easier on a fender.

    Geoff....

    I designed these and used to sell them exclusive, but its easier to send people direct now.

    ASE fabricated them for me (I know Dave as a mate)
    TRS sell the same identical unit sourced from ASE.

    ASE cores are the most efficient manufactured.

    Anything else I can assist you with just ask....

    Just fiited one to a D2, everything fits, quality workmanship and it works a treat. ASE good to deal with BUT as they had none in stock had to wait 9 days. Not sure if the Disco and Defender ones are popular or just made to order, didn't ask. Will certainly use them from now on.

    I am considering this upgrade to my 2000 Discovery. It is already chipped. can I expect any reliability 'issues' long term with this mod? Will it have + or - effect on my economy?

    cheers

    As per Slunnie... No problems....

    A good economy upgrade is to source a D2a intercooler.

    These are larger than an early discovery.
