I have to change my radiator and buy a new one, so I thought of buying an intercooler instead of the new radiator.
Is that possible?
by the way my car is not turbo but i'm going to turbo it in the future
so give me your opinion guys

 

so are you going to drive without a radiator and with a intercooler? thats not going to work.

but, if you choose to put the intercooler and the radiator in the car and save some time later when you do the turbo, then do it. but htat might make people break in your car thinking you have turbo since you have a damn intercooler sticking out of your front bumper

Holy ****.

No.

Intercooler is for air, radiator is for liquid. Just get a new radiator.

 

HAHAHA, come on man!! Put a radiator in that thing! You can't be serious!!

No, intercoolers dont have radiator caps. Even if you had one welded on, you would still have to mount the intercooler in a way that the radiator cap becomes the highest point in the coolant's path.

 

An intercooler does not serve the same function as a radiator!!!
Where are you gonna attach your intercooler piping? One pipe from the intercooler to the throttle body, the other pipe from the intercooler to the...????..you'll need a turbo man.

 

this thread is funny. im speechless.

 

Thnx for those who replyed with a logical reply and fuc* those who started flaming
what the fuc* is wrong with you ? do you think you came out of your moms punani with an intercooler or a turbo kit?
get a life, we ask so we can learn and if you have a problem with that just fuc* off and dont reply because your wasting my time reading your bullshit, and if you think that i'm bullshiting then correct me if i'm wrong !

 

When i read the word "punani" i thought of the mad real world..haha

Use the intercooler for an air cooled motor...?
Kidding like everyone said just go ahead and get a new radiator! I'd also wait on the intercooler..what if plans change and it would be a thefts dream to see that just stting there! Plus what if stuff gets into it...who knows how long before you're turboed!
