3.1l isuzu mu turbo intercooler

Postby 95isuzumu » Sat Apr 29, 2017 6:09 am

Hey

Ive got a 1995 Isuzu mu, its the 3.1 turbo without the intercooler.
The turbo has packed a sad and is on its way out, from my understanding this is a common fault.
I was wondering is i picked up a turbo and intercooler set up off an bighorn 3.1 would it bolt straight on to my mu.
Are there any down sides to doing this conversion, i plan on doing 4WD but i also plan on doing trips from about a hour north of Auckland
to the south island 2000-3000 kms round trip.
Any info is appreciated, cheers

Just buy a new 3.1 intercooled turbo, intercooler along with intercooler mounts, hoses and air intake pipe from air box to turbo secondhand, and the scoop for the bonnet
