Intercooler

[Steve Burnett]

what benefits are gained from fitting an intercooler to a FD?
Lower temps, increased bhp
These are the things I think, am I right on the increased bhp?
If fitting an intercooler do you need to get the fuelling sorted out too? (getting a Apexi PFC)

Any info would be great, thanks

the FD comes with an intercooler.

I understand fitting a bigger one gives you slightly more bhp(but a starting point for lots more) by lowering the the temp.

Intercooler lowers intake temps and enables you to raise boost

sensibly !!!

It makes significant difference which you will notice straight away and you will definitely need a re-map.

I just got hit by that probelm as well, except I\'ve not got a programamble ECU (yet).

I\'m planning on going APexi PFC next month so I\'m just going to have to behave until then.
