intercooling an n/a car isn't going to provide any gains, it may result in slightly increased intake temperatures.

I am really confused with the direction that this is taking.

Does the car have or will have a turbo fitted to it?

i suggest you google what an intercooler actually is.


unless you just want to add a cold air intake...

If you're really serious about making more power in your AU then I would suggest upgrading your wiper blades to '260km/h FPV' versions at the same time as you perform your engine modifications.

Oh and get some FPV floor mats also.

best bet is to ask in the AU Falcon.com section in the "forum community car clubs" section i think its called.

a pretty common mod, is to change out the standard intake snorkel with an XR6Turbo intake snorkel and a K&N panel filter. might see you make a kilowatt or 2 if you're lucky.
