What happens here

Implement an intercooling system between the two turbochargers in the compound turbo setup. This modification aims to further reduce the intake air temperature, which is critical for maximizing engine performance and efficiency. By lowering the temperature of the compressed air before it enters the engine, more oxygen can be delivered, leading to a denser charge, improved combustion, and potentially an additional 20 horsepower and 100 ft-lbs of torque. This upgrade also contributes to overall engine longevity by reducing thermal stress.

Goal: Reduce intake air temperature for increased power, torque, and efficiency.

that's going to be a blue a blue engine with a some blue in the coach. And then like I say, it'll have all the goodies on it. And we're going to build them. The only thing that we're going to change is we're actually going to put uh intercooler between the turbos on this one to drop intake air temperature that will actually make it perform probably I think we can pick up another 20 horse and d near 100 footlbs of torque more efficiency. Huh. And Mark has had some issues originally until we came out with our new boots.
