Hmm, I can dig up a bunch of pics but I didn't document it as well as I should have. I always kick myself for not taking pics and writing down measurements.
 
You did this setup? how much did the EGT dropped?
Hi Eric,
I'm copying this intercooler build. One change I'm making is adding a small 1.5L water reservoir between the heat exchanger and the intercooler.

Once I get it finished I'll post pics and EGT #'S.

I noticed your EGT gauge is post turbo in the exhaust elbow, so I'm guessing your numbers and my numbers will look a bit different.

Thanks for the inspiration and I hope the set up is still working for you.

Here is my version of water-to-air intercooler for BJ42;
Barrel style cooler 8x4” and 2 litre coolant expansion tank:

The outer core is 44-row oil cooler with homemade stainless brackets:

The water pump is Kormas U4810 24V (1250 l/h @ 0.2 bar), this is compared to cheap chinese 2000 l/h pump:

The best place for it was under the right battery holder:

Like it’s planned to be there (see that slot in the battery holder).

I mounted it with 3” exhaust band:
