My daily Maestro has a turbo Prima engine. Great to the gallon, fast enough when it gets into it's stride and anyone who tries to beat me a traffic lights I can just leave in a cloud of smoke.

Does the positioning of the intercooler make any great difference? I was going to place it either above or below the radiator at the front. I have enough space it.s just a matter of plumbing.

Just make sure it has plenty of air going through it.Mine is located in front of the radiator and works well,without upsetting the coolant system.
