As trick pointed out, I think the real issue is the intercooler size, not the heat exchanger.

 

That's what I'm hoping, otherwise I just wasted a nice chunk of change

 

A high volume pump works with you IF you have a large volume of cool water to keep "flushing" the intercooler with. How ever, it works against you when your flowing that same heated water though a heat exchanger to fast to cool if off. It's about finding a balance of flow for the amount of water you have in the system and the size of the intercooler and heat exchanger and how the system is going to be used. Drag setup with large tank to fill with ice and water, or DD where you depending on heat exchanger to cool the water off.

 

I read an article in Chevy High Performance on a Radix 112 in a Silverado SS. They slowed the IC pump down and it lowered the IATs. Basically they said if the water spent more time in the IC, it could absorb more heat.

Just a thought...

 

Digging up an old thread....



Pics not showing up....

Any chance you can repost them or email them to me? Thanks!!

 

Hmm I will see if I can find them. Not sure why that folder in my photobucket disappeared.

 

That would be awesome. I was looking at the 2" thick version, but if you didn't have issues mounting the 3" 101, then that will likely be what I go with.

The shitty part is I have a stock CTS-V heat exchanger, but the water ports and overall size have me scratching my head on how to make in work in my 03 Silverado.

Thanks!!

 

I have that heat exchanger mounted in my 04 2500. Its not doing anything yet, but its there. I will try to find some pics....

 

Cool, thx!!

 

On my 05 Sierra, fits behind the grill with a little trimming.
