It was an ex police post 2010 V70 with twin turbo D5. I checked the location on similar models and the IC sensor is downstream.

I wouldn't have entertained any argument that uses an IR thermometer.

Well this is the video that is referred to by fans of those who paint their intercoolers black ....
.... and this is the video which has a more scientific approach and disproves it all!
I know which I believe. |

I love those guys.... watched a lot of their vids. Electric Superchargers from EBay is my favorite.

Hi my 2002 D5 does have the IAT sensor before the intercooler,
But I have now fitted a vw bosch 3bar T-MAP sensor , so now I am going to connect a data logger and log the temp/boost pressure, with and with out the 2 Horns in the way off the cooling, to see if moving them helps, Dave |

I really, really, REALLY don't like the notion that his products 'work' on the basis of hear-say and reviews from customers. I'll remain skeptical but the dyno test results are interesting to say nonetheless. Products: https://www.facebook.com/groups/5619...1918317168788/ Dyno Test: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...&theater&ifg=1 I won't say snakeskin oil just yet but wouldn't mind trying to test some of the products objectively as possible, having a D5 what most interests me are the injector cleaner and diesel power plus. The latter of which may be testable via OBDII data logging.
