This might sound stupid  -  i take that risk alot :):-)

But turbo's & superchargers just pressurise the air & therfore forcemore air
in & more fuel in right ?

now comes the might sound stupid right, but is there any other way of doing
the same thing ?

An intercooler on a non turbo car is a bit like a vertical ejector seat on a
helicopter.

Air inside the intercooler is the same temp as the air outside the
intercooler so it does nothing!

With a water spray directed onto the fins, or chiller can on a water air
intercooler you could get the air temp a bit below ambient, but not much.

The amount of heat removal in an intercooler varies in direct proportion to
the pressure of the charge air.
(P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2) some smart arse said once upon a time :-)?

By pressurising air, there is more heat per unit volume. The intercooler
becomes more efficient as pressure rises as the temperature differential is
greater, up to the point of maximum flow occurring.

Yeah I'm into Datsuns its all low cost,
My light setup wouldnt owe me $70.  so what you mean??.It is low frills.

I think I have a box full of used H1 head lights in the shed,,just check out
parts yards

I only used the stock alt ,the twin relay is wired straight to the battery
and the only part of the factory wiring thats not used is the wires that
plug into the factory head lights,No need to remove them,but if selling the
car easy to remove relay and wiring and plug factory lights back in.

outer lights are low beam and all 4 for high beam using the didoe across the
relay.

The Factory relay does both,,when it packs up the low beam work fine but
when you go high beam only the centre ones work..

I sold my cibies  ,i dont dream of driving a fully restored 510SSS on gravel
roads ,plus six lights on the front is too much ..

Whats peoples thoughts of a intercooler on a non turboed car?.  I thin k it
would work,,even ice can and water sprayers..

I do plan for ice bucket in the boot for the petorl ,,,,
They just go so much better when its cold air ,,so why not all the time?.
