cheers mate. The car isnt intercooled/aftercooled yet but i will possibly be looking into it once i get the mapping done. But to be honest im not wanting to chase big numbers but rather have a well set up car with a little bit more power and torque. Plus i would really rather spend the money on better gearing i think
I think it would certainly be something I'd look into not for figure chasing purposes but purely as a safety feature. I'm sure its not a huge amount of boost that the charger generates but it'll certainly be enough to increase the strain on the components thus generating more heat for certain. Looking back it has a standard rad too so I'd certainly look into upgrading that even if its just to a DC2 full length jobby.
An intercooler wouldn't cost the earth though you could potentially use a second hand one from say a VW 20v as they're very neat and would certainly fit in the bay.
