  • Maestro turbo intercooler

    im going to up the hp on my maestro turbo to 250 can anybody tell me what intercooler would fit other than the standard one that's currently fitted to mine and does anybody have a suitable replacement

    When I was looking into this early in my rebuild, I seem to recall that a SAAB 93 (I think) intercooler was seen as a good upgrade. Having said that, what you need to consider is the position and size of your radiator. That will dictate if you can use a cross-flow intercooler with exit pipes each side, or if you need to stick with a standard type reverse flow, where both the pipes are on the RHS of the radiator. If you have got access to the current Monstro, there is a pic of the intercoooler that Peter Charlesworth had custom made for his T16 Turbo. It might give you an idea about shape and size.

      here's a Pic of a Forge intercooler that they use to make for the Mastro, it fits where the normal one usually goes just the support bracket needs moving

          Are you using the standard turbo? Boost increase?

              if your interested in the Intercooler I can send you some more photos of it, it's used but in fairly good condition. I'm using a intercooler over three times lager than that now its actually larger than the uprated Radtec radiator, I'm working on the car tomorrow so will take a pic of that as well for you
