Tom Byrne had a 2500 Suburban with an 8.1 that he put an intercooled Whipple on. He was one of the early buyers of that kit and had to sort through a HEAP of problems with PCM limp mode. He's a busy guy these days but I would guess he could probably offer some advice.

I had to constantly worry about overheating with the Dmax radiator, and thats the part that sucked. I was seeing cruising IATs of 108* on 100* days and WOT IATs of 125* on 100* days. Its was fantastic, just couldnt control the ECT's for the life of me.

Yea, I have seen that too, but rather than sinking another $1000 into a fix for a "MOD", i would rather just go for the tried and true way of doing it. I would not have thought the Dmax radiator would have trouble cooling my engine. I mean it cools (or tries to...lol) the big diesel, why wouldn't it cool the 8.1L? Nah...i have made my mind up to just get the Whipple I/C and be done with it.....just got to save up a few more pennies. That sucker cost almost $2000, got to figure a way to smuggle that out of the bank account without the woman seeing it. I think im going to open a new checking account just for my truck...LOL....seriously. Just put like $100 a week in there and use it for my truck and other misc. things that come up. That way i have no splainnin to do lucy!
