Default procharger horizontal mount intercooler...pics? iat's?

I'm trying to figure out how to mount an intercooler on my 98 (OBS) Chevy truck and am looking for pics of any Procharger setups with horizontally (under the frame behind the bumper?) mounted intercooler setups, and the intake plumbing. Unfortunately, I don't have enough room to run one up front like the NBS guys do .

Anyone with this type of setup know what IAT numbers they're running and how much boost?

Thanks!

Mine mounts right where the skid plate is. My temps cruising around are usually around 75 to 85, if I get on it they go up to about 110 depending on how long I stay in it. I need to get a log of what they are like during a quarter mile run, haven't done that yet.

That doesn't sound bad at all, but I guess it depends on the variables, boost, iat in, iat out, ambient temp, etc.

Do you have any pics of the intercooler and piping? Just looking for ideas and would help me out alot

Mine is there too. 10 psi on LQ9. Temps are about 0 - 5* above ambient at cruise, 10 -20* above on a full 1/4 WOT run. Mine is a bigger 3 core Griffin unit though.

Those are some pretty good numbers for 10psi and a horizontal mount...I'm not as worried now, thanks for the info

Did you see any drop/increase in boost when you upgraded to the Griffin intercooler? I've heard that the procharger intercoolers are somewhat restrictive...
