   Have you got a turbo?
   
   Or do you mean, a fake one just to fill the space?
   
   You could fit a Oil Cooler, that would take the space up, and would do a practical job athough you wouldnt really need one.

   someone on ebay has told me that an intercooler will fit but do nothing for performance..

    They dont do anything for performance per say, E.G - it wont make the car faster or anything.
    
    They tend to be used more on turbod cars.
