Fitting an intercooler to a Turbo D

<< < (3/4) > >>

Poprivit-RRC:
understand guys but i want to understand whats involved before i take it in so

1. i dont get ripped off

2. if she starts to use too much juice i can back it off a bit

It's never going to be a hotrod but it does feel a little under powered so i would like to check the timing and pump fueling by givining a little bit more to see if it helps.

My end plan is to TDI her but got to keep as is till the right motor comes up :)

Xtremeteam:
what i mean is AFAIk you cant tweak the fuelling on a TD pump the same way you do a Tdi,also fitting a TD5 rad & intercooler os a lot o work for no reason,you want to fit a tdi In the long run so start the job properly & use a TDI rad & intercooler,saves LOTs of dicking about & making things fit,

Poprivit-RRC:
i agree but the TDI cooler is not that good so i just want to know if any one was running a TD5 rad and cooler with a TDI / TD to see how it looks and runs. unless i get a good deal on TDI motor and rad's then ill go down the std route :)

just got to find a good fender TDI now :) easier said than done :(

So if anyone has one drop me a pm.........may even swop the bobtail for it....but only if you ask realy nicely :)

scrapiron:
Here's an idea mate!

1. Sell MG

2. Sell bobtail

3. Sell 110

4. Buy a 90 in good enough condition that you can develop over time but that you can still actually use as you are a hard working chap with not a lot of time.

5.You will then not have to sit on my left hand side !!!! not that you want to after this post LOL.   :twisted:  :lol:  :lol:

6. you can give me that TD5 intercooler back (Santa loves Ebay)

7. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATE you are a good friend cheers!!!!

PS Charlie Perkins thinks you are trying to steal his trade!!!

Poprivit-RRC:
even if it was a foot deep in mud and starting to snow id rather walk than get in your shed  :twisted:

bling bling bling  :shock:
