Removing the intercooler

The intercooler is fit to the chassis by 4 bolts, and ofcourse, the last bolt won't come loose.

We need some power tools to remove this little bastard. I used a 'haakse slijper' to cut the bolt.

And there it is, the intercooler. The intercooler will cool the before it is fed to the engine, The volume will decrease and more air can be puped in the ignition room.

Lots and lots of hoses to be disconnected. I label them with section number and picture number from the original Sierra Cosworth Workshope Manual.

Removing the turbo

Eventually, after removing the outlet manifold, I thought I was able te remove the turbo. Unfortunately, I didn't manage to remove the outlet manifold from the turbo. I'll try this another time, it's not in the way.
