Delica Truck

A good question. I would conservatively expect a 10-15% improvement in torque. The TD05 turbo engine made 80kW, the TC04 waste gate turbo made 86kW. So the next step up turbo should put the engine in the 90-95 kW range. It's the added torque that will make the difference. It will also depend on whether or not an intercooler is going to be in the upgrade as well.

He wants to add an intercooler, but for some reason the shop he's talking about it is trying to talk him out of it. Not sure why.
How much of an impact would and intercooler have?

Whoa, that's a first for me - haven't seen one before
