i have a old landrover qwner international mag here from 2008 stating a guy called Jeremy j Fern fitted a larger fmic that had x3 the surface area of the standard one used on a 2.5 p38 and went from 23mpg to 32mpg and from 136bhp to 196 bhp as anyone else found this? i dont care about the bhp but definatly the mpg!

Hi

If by fmic you mean intercooler then lots of sites offer combined intercooler upgrade and chip which remaps the fuel delivery meaning less gearchange and no or little increase in MPG, drive more sensibly with the extra power and you can indeed get savings.

yeah but a larger front mount will have more surface area which there for would cool more air entering the engine therfore making it more dense there for making the engine work less harder = more mpg

No kidding

Bound to, also a lot of people on here rate ITG air filters that would also increase the throughput of air to use in conjunction with the IC to maximise benefit and also a lot cheaper than a bigger IC, not as much increase though

so am i correct increase in mpg?

 

[adamrharding]

Yep

Intercooler puts more air in chamber means better burning of diesel/petrol which if you back off the pedal will mean more MPG.

Typical quotes I have seen online vary from about £650 to £750 to supply and fit larger IC.

Anyone else got any ideas?
