PAJERO FRONT MOUNT INTERCOOLER INSTALL

Welcome to this much-requested video! Today we are installing a front mount intercooler on my Pajero NS. The kit is bought from Ebay which is under $300 AUD. It took me roughly 2 days to complete, taking my time. Overall it is an easy job everyone can do :)

My biggest supporter!! Thank you so much💯 Much love❤😝

great job mate, glad to be of assistance 🍻 i log intake temps and after doing mine 12 months ago ive knocked a consistent 40deg out of my intake temps on my stock NS auto, with no issue of heat soak at all like the old one . ive also got a box of spares if anyone in country NSW is looking for some ;)

[@budget4x4life]

Legend!💥💯 That's awesome to hear I just ordered a temperature gauge so keen to see! Good to be part of the front mount club💯🤣

[@tfconstruction5969]

Where abouts in nsw I'm in newy looking at doing this to my ns aswell now

[@stevezurek7281]

With the new larger intercooler it will take longer to heat soak,ie towing uphill with ya trailer keeping the intake temps lower longer .But heat will eventually creep in.When you do a ECM remap for extra power this will benefit the paj. Snorkel +exhaust + engine remap on a dyno = more power and big smiles.Future development.🇦🇺👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@budget4x4life]

Thanks heaps for the input mate!😊💯 I am going to install a bigger radiator and snorkel is on the list so yess should be nice and cool😍 Can't wait for that tune!!😝😝💯💯

very nice, thanks for the detailed video

[@budget4x4life]

No worries at all Ruben glad it helps!🙌🏼💯

[@dandroidgrocott]

G'day legend, looks great. You're definitely going to want to bead roll the ends of all those pipes you put in. Don't want to blow a hose on the highway or the beach!

[@budget4x4life]

Thanks mate I am currently just seeing how I go but yes might do it soon to be extra safe😄💯

great vid awsome improvements been watching for a while just subscribed

[@budget4x4life]

Thanks Jackson! Means a lot mate💯🙌🏼😝

[@jacksondudes]

@@budget4x4life another question with your trailer i have a similar trailer for camping and seeing the video after some damages after some bumps how are the rear of the springs held in are they just slid into a holder of bolted shackles mine were just slide in ones and i hit a big bump on the sand and the springs fell out and stranded me on the beach

[@budget4x4life]

@@jacksondudes Shoot bro thats no good. Umm front of leafs are slid in and rear bolted on I believe. Definitely must've been a hard hit for it to come out haha. I have made some changes to the trailer which will be shown soon hopefully 🔥

[@jacksondudes]

@@budget4x4life yeah it was like when you get double bounced on a trampoline the car look the bump fine but the trailer come out of one hole and itno another and went in the air and slammed. down keen to see more

Awesome

[@hatzvegas]

This is great ! Thanks for making it ! It is however dangerous.., in what sence you might ask .. 🙊🙊 do an exhaust swap next hahah. Im sure people already hitting you up for this n that good stuff 👌

[@budget4x4life]

Hahaha I gotcha🤣 mmm exhaust might be down the track who knows🤣 Yess replying crazy haha but good to know I help someone do it as well😊💥 Hope you do it too aye!

[@mattbode1038]

The intercooler pipe bolts are easy to get to if you unclip the fan shroud. Be careful not to break the tabs when you do it though as they can get fragile.

[@budget4x4life]

Cheers💯

[@terrybarbie5207]

I'm interested in the longer term results of overall engine & transmission temperature due to the intercooler being in front of the transmission cooler - can you keep us up to date please?

[@budget4x4life]

Yes no worries at all😊 I am going to upgrade the radiator as well just as a personal preference and I'll check the temps as soon as I get a gauge💯😊 and if I could reroute the oil cooler to a better spot if necessary.

[@OurTone1111]

Thanks for the vid mate I want to do this to mine, what year model yours? Spray paint any cuts to the radiator support to prevent rust, can check for leaks using soapy water and a spray bottle, also to prevent blowing a coupler in boost you can buy a inter cooler pipe bead roller which puts a bead on the end of the pipe so the clamp grabs it more and prevents it blowing off. After seeing this can’t see why a tune would be worth doing without a intercooler upgrade, thanks again!

[@budget4x4life]

06 model mate NS😊 Thanks mate will definitely try it out and see if all good💯 I will look into it! Thank you🙌🏼💥

[@bradleymader6196]

Did u have any problems with hoses blowing of in the test drive or later.

[@budget4x4life]

Nope. Only when the car got tuned...I have another vid where I upgarded the hoses to suit more boost🙂💯

[@extra7219]

Hey mate, any updates with the intercooler? Issues? What would you do different, etc.?

[@budget4x4life]

No issues at all till I got it tuned😊💯 However if you gonna run more boost I highly recommend rolling the ends and getting thicker silicone as the boost just ripped through it when it got tuned. In the next video I am going to talk about the tune and pipes etc so just keep an eye out but yeah if stock the kit is just fine👌🏼💯😊

[@extra7219]

@@budget4x4life awesome man. Really appreciate the feedback!

[@mattzander2157]

Not sure cutting radiator support panel is a good idea🤣🤣

[@budget4x4life]

It's the only way mate🤣🙌🏼

Boost controller would he helpful

Cheers mate!

[@RizeElektronik]

Before HP? Before torq ? After HP? After torq ? Please thanks ☺️ good joob

[@budget4x4life]

Thanks mate. The cooler may give you tiny bit more power but mostly just there to keep everything nice and cool. After the tune it's at 550nm and 130kw🤪💯

[@arronkaranikis9962]

2.5 inch pipes on cold side?

[@budget4x4life]

Check other video. But yes all same size and custom pipes cold side😊💯

[@Danysleo180]

hi m8, is fuel economy improved after?

[@budget4x4life]

Hey mate. You will need to tune your car for the best performance. It probably will be a bit better due to lower intake temps🙂💯

[@aaroncassar4333]

You have the link of the intercooler

[@budget4x4life]

In description 🙂

[@jumarierubin525]

what is the size of your intercooler?

Контент интересный👍, но пилить усиленный бампер не стоит .

Unfortunately most intercooler kits require this. Otherwise a bash with a hammer😄

[@kingmarz3635]

Them cheap rubber joints don’t handle 20+psi Check out my Pajero walk around video I went with a RX7 v-mount intercooler with 3” piping

[@budget4x4life]

Check out my update video on that😊

[@gmattk]

Mate that was weird. Some views your battery was on the drivers side others it was on the passenger side. Same with the air intake. What’s going on.

[@budget4x4life]

Good old days filming with phone camera where it mirrored the footage 😂

[@justonepaking3021]

Next: change the air filter

[@budget4x4life]

Yes already have the high flow in 😜 But now with snorkel it is loud so back to stock filter haha and high flow on trips!

[@justonepaking3021]

@@budget4x4life don't you want to change into mushroom style filter aka performance filter

[@justonepaking3021]

You can get it at some local performance shop there

[@budget4x4life]

@@justonepaking3021 I think I know what you're talking about but no don't think you can run them with a snorkel cause it still needs to fit the factory airbox.

Did you get engineer certification? This looks like it damages crucial structures in the engine bay. Might not be legal.

[@budget4x4life]

It's all good mate many intercooler kits require cutting of the structure🙂💯 looks worse than it is haha
