Hi all,

I was wondering what peoples experiences are with intercoolers. In Adelaide it gets pretty dry and hot for long periods of time.

From searching the archives I get the impression that the stock intercooler works fine with the KO3. Is this the case in Australian conditions.

I would imagine the best thing to do here would be to use a water mister. (I believe larger intercoolers are not recommend for the KO3).

Anyone done any testing regarding heat soak with the stock intercooler in Australia?

I hadn't thought about the turbo temputure, which as mentioned an intercooler isn't going to help.

Fortunately I don't intend doing lot's of sustained WOT (no track days planned).
