So, the hood scoop looks a bit odd on an MB diesel but it supposedly holds an intercooler. Does anyone think it is effective? Does an intercooler help in any way on a diesel or is it going against the grain because a diesel needs heat to fire? Randy On 02/10/2012 10:42 AM, G Mann wrote: O

Another name for "intercooler" and a more proper one is "Intake Charge Cooler"... It's purpose is to cool the charge of air coming into the engine thus allowing more air to be packed into the cylinder making a more oxygen dense "air charge" for combustion.[cold air is more dense, rule of physics]

Does an intercooler help in any way on a diesel When combined with other factors yes it is a big win. The crazy Finns are using them. So is my Dodge 6BTA. (T for turbo, A for aftercooler.) Bolting one on alone does _nothing_! I was fixated on the "hood scope" Now I want to lash the Tek

After looking at the picture of the car again.. the "hood scope" does give it a certain kind of "end of the world, Mad Max, survivor of the species look" that, considering the present state of the economy and the violent trend of the world has an appeal sort of like people watching at WalMa
