Intercooler Upgrade and Turbo Upgrade - [ Can You Run An Intercooler Without A Turbo ]

An intercooler upgrade and turbo upgrade can make a huge difference to the performance of a turbo diesel engine.
Matt explains how you can run an intercooler without a turbo upgrade, particularly if you are towing a caravan.
Just the intercooler upgrade will help with dispersing heat, and giving you more of a constant power range while in the hills, without loosing power when you need it the most.
A turbo upgrade will provide extra power into your engine, but it will also increase your Exhaust Gas Temperature ( EGT ) so there for that increased heat needs to be managed. Thats where a larger intercooler will help with managing the extra EGT heat.
Turbo diesel engines love cold air running through them, so the larger intercooler will help you to keep cold air running through your turbo, and keeping the power going when you need it.
The ZD30 engine in my Nissan Patrol has both a intercooler upgrade and turbo upgrade, and the difference it makes is amazing.
