    Turbo/Intercooler Engineering

    Hey guys,

    Does anyone have any experience with having their intercooler & turbos engineered? Is it worth doing or should I just run the gauntlet? TD42, located Melbourne.

    Cheers

    I would contact your insurer and the appropriate authorities and find out if engineering will actually make it legal. Sometimes you can have all the engineering in world but if its illegal then its illegal.

    Speak to this bloke chappy

    He's local too. He done my mates GU when he fitted an LS2 into it.
    Plus if you are putting out more than 20% power than what the engine originally did. Then yeah it needs, well should be, engineered.
