| Does anybody have any experience of fitting an intercooler to the 3 litre engine on a KZJ 70? I need info on who you went to, how much did it cost and what were the honest results. |

I"m no mechanic, but what's the advantage of having an intercooler fitted? Of course if it's significant I'd look at doing it to mine as well.

| The benefit of fitting an intercooler is to cool the air between the turbo and the engine. Depending on the size of the cooler you can expect a power increase of up to 20%. To take full advantage you need to reset the injector pump and maybe the turbo boost. |

Oh yep, to be honest my wagon doesn't appear to need any power boosting, got plenty as is standard!
