Several people have inquired in the past about Twin Turbo. More recently it was discussed that a Twin Turbo setup on a four-cylinder is completely pointless. We all know that turbo's create unwanted heat. I had the idea, while sitting in class today, of a Twin Intercooled engine. I don't know if anyone has ever done it, but I'd like to ask about it.
We all know that the 3S-GTE has a Top Mount Intercooler. I've read threads about putting a FMIC (Front Mount Intercooler) on a 3S-GTE engine. People have said it is possible, but it would need custom piping. So, this brought about the idea of a Twin Intercooled engine. I figured if a person could mount a FMIC on a 3S-GTE (with custom piping of course), then why couldn't they simply connect it to the TMIC and have double the cooled air charge. I figure it would keep a high-powered engine MUCH cooler than normal. I also figured it was possible since there isn't a FMIC stock with the 3S-GTE engine, therefore there is the space to do it with. Get back to me, people! I appreciate all who contribute! This post has been edited by Inferno: Oct 8, 2003 - 6:08 PM |

I agree with pretty much everything said... the best option would be to just get a bigger FMIC for more cooling.
PS on a 205 the IC would most likly work in helping cool but boost loss and resistance would still be bad. |
