Dear TD fans,

I have an intercooler from a SAAB that is in good shape. It definitely can be made to work with a TD.

You can have it for $25 plus shipping.

Cheers, MJS

Well, I have heard it could give you up to 20% more power by cooling that air, but I do not know of anyone that has done this on a 1.6 or 1.9TD. If you don't get an answer on this list, it most likely has not been done. Someone must have tried. I do not know where you would put the intercooler radiator, let alone all the tubing.
