Intercooler installation on rotax914

by Charly in 912 / 914 Technical Questions 12 years ago

I have a helicopter CH-7 Kompress with a rotax 914 installed. The risk, that i reach the maximum airbox temperature of 88 degree C at high altitude while hoovering is a fact. Consquentely the wastegate would open and reduce power at a moment in flight, where i need the power the most.
Has anyone experience with the installation of an intercooler?
Rotax does not supply intercooler, is one available in the market?
Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks
Karl

Thank you very much, i'll check that out. In the meantime i have installed a temp probe to find out the exact temp. in the airbox while hoovering at different altitude.
