WL 2.5 TD conversion

Post by dustbuster »

Hi

Is there some one that can help me out, need some pics and advise on the conversion.

Have bought the engine from hoppy and mounted it place got the KZTE radiator,
need some advice on the intercooler and the piping especially from the airbox to the intercooler.

Going to get a intercooler from MR turbo think a 500x180x65 also the silicon bends that I might need.

is it okay to use stainless steel for the piping to and from the intercooler or should I use aluminium?
Will be installing a custom made integrated bumper with a winch so have to make sure that it doesn't interfere with the intercooler.
