I have an intercooler question…
From what I have read on here, the stock SMIC is usually knackered after 10 years or so (mine is 15 years old now…bless), but what makes it knackered? Does it get blocked up, does it degrade?
I know next to nothing about these units so I may be asking a really stupid question, but, can they be refurbished? More to the point, could I do it myself?
I have been reading the argument in the many, many posts regarding FMIC over SMIC; eventually I'm hoping to take my car to about 550/600rwhp, but at that power, I’m still not sure from the pro’s and con’s put forward, which one is best. However, with no cash to buy either at the moment, it's a mute point, so I was left wondering whether I can refurbish it myself?
Any advice?
Ta.
