*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR TURBOCHARGER ***
After reading numerous reports on the virtues of intercoolers, I started
wondering if it's possible to retrofit one on a Saab 900 Turbo ('83 model
in particular.) The exhaust oxygen sensor and APC boost control will
compensate for the cooler compressed air. (I know this works, because the
car has much more power on very cold days (0 degrees F and lower)).
However, I'd like to solicit advice on two points. First, where can I
*find* an intercooler (with associated plumbing and fittings)? Are there
specialty catalogs that sell them? Second, where is the best place to mount
the thing? It's kinda crowded under the hood already.
Thanks in advance.
