Intercooler, i have an idea!

[Steely]

Bit of a long shot,

Been thinking today, not a good thing i'll admit, but!

the standard mk1 LC intercooler tucked behind the drivers side front bumper, Would any benefit be had if a small yet efficient radiator/aircon fan was strapped to the back of it to suck cold air through it, runnig say of a switchable circuit 12v??

is it worth a shot?

It would prob help a little but not worth all the hassle.

If your goint to the point of puting the standard SMIC up front you might as well just get a uni FMIC off ebay.

If you remove the foglights the intercooler is right behind the fog light hole.

It was just a thought, a better heat exchange buy forcing the cold air through the intercooler, especially since the stock one doesnt have a particularly good air feed,

I think the airflow coming through the cooler while driving, will be more than what the fan could provide. Hence why cooling fans never run when the car is moving (other than town driving obviuosly)
