Hi Grumpy,

In mine eyes, I believe buildin a f.i.'s turbo'd v8 WIHTOUT an
intercooler is like buildin a normally aspirated v8 with only 4
pistons....

The benefits of the turbo are less than half of that if designed WITH an
intercooler....

Plus the turbo and engine incur WAY more thermal stress and are short
lived in comparison...

It's like building a car without a radiator....

A watercooled housing is a big help as far as oil breakdown within the
turbo bushing/bearing area...where most of the oil breakdown occurs in a
turbo engine due to the intense heat exposure in this area...

LATER!
