yes but your air intake temp will be hotter, which will cause pinging ( detonation) this will damage the pistons and cylinders. to stop pinging you must lower the boost pressure and retard the timing.this will cause a major loss off power. if you are set you are not going to use a intercooler,you can try a water injection system this will help with detonation.if you want real performance a i/cooler is advised.more boost = more hp
A car can run with out an intercooler, but if it was designed to have an intercooler, the driveabilty will be affected.
yes
I suspect one will be an intercooler for the turbo
Yes and No. Intercoolers cool air that is compressed in a turbo. You can setup an intercooler on a non turbo car and have it connected to the air intake and such... .....it will rob you of horsepower by sending air through a lot of unnecessary tubes.
The normal direction of airflow is air filter to turbo, to intercooler, to engine.The normal direction of airflow is air filter to turbo, to intercooler, to engine.
If your boosting any car. What you need is the: -Turbo -turbo mani -oil feed -oil dran -oil flanges -exhaust flanges -injectors -intercooler -intercooler piping -BOV -WG -tuned ECU
It isn't really necessary. All an intercooler does (besides cooling a turbo unit so it doesn't overheat) is cool down the air going into the engine. The air only needs to be cooled because it passes by the hot engine and through a hot turbo. in a car without a turbo, all there is to warm up the air is the engine, so you want to get the air from as far away from the engine as possible. The answer is a cold air intake. These are much cheaper than intercoolers and much simpler.
yes
There will always be some oil in the intercooler. Part of the emissions system connects the engine breather to the airbox. As the turbo sucks air through the airbox it tends to suck some oil into the intercooler.
make sure you have not blow your turbo. If you did not blow the turbo you might have put a hole into the intercooler. This will cause you to use a ton of gas
this sounds alot like a turbo failure, although there could well be a leak in the pipes leading from the turbo to the intercooler, or from the intercooler to the inlet manifold. also check the intercooler for leaks. or it is the vacuum pipe that operates the waste gate on the turbo, or a seized waste gate.
Whatever the intercooler is for (transmission, turbo, etc), will most likely overheat and do some damage.
