Talking Re: Reassembly of an intercooler
Well 180 has my back, now I can rest a bit, welcome aboard mate ehh!

The fine fins in the IC were coated with gunk and oil vapor which attract dirt from the air and INSULATE the fins in addition to blocking the air FLOW. Ill show the difference in a serious way as youll be suprised. The difference is . . . . in a work: is MANIFOLD.

I believe that the air flow can be significantly reduced and the cooling takes a hit in a big way due to the dirt. Remember me I am the one that has been fighting heat in this car and designed the oil catch can for the intake manifold. Well I have to prove it ( to keep the crowd from jumping my case in a big way ) and will show it so that you can decide for yourself.

No cost, just strap in and keep reading - it will be good.

Wdy
