intercooler and fuel pumps
Turbo Mini Forums

whats the ideal size for an I/C to be for a mildly modded turbo 1293 running not more than 15 psi?

i know someone who can custom make one for not so much so if any of you guys want a custom one gimme a bell and ill see what i can do

oh and btw will I/C efficiency suffer if the pipes to and from the turbo are quite long?

thanks

tom

the biggest you can get in a mini front as space is limited anyway!
im going to use a 2wd cossie i/c which i think should be up for the job, as a few people on this site runs them and a few run more than 15psi!
just look in the search for intercooler or 2wd cossie etc.

cheers mate
and if you dont mind a question about fuel pumps

will the fuel pump from a ford turbo (dunno which one) be ok for the mini? i was told they can be used instead of the metty ones

Metro/Cavalier/Golf GTI fuel pumps are handy though, as they have push on barbs at each end.

The Ford pumps usully have a threaded outlet.

9.85 @ 145mph
202mph standing mile
speed didn't kill me, but taxation probably will

Check out this application list.

scroll down to page 5, the MG metro turbo is listed as a FP603 or 0580464070, then see what else its used on, that will give you an idea what you can rob the pump off.

whoo you rock man
thank god for TM
