IC works great @ 5# boost. I need to turn up the boost and see how it works @ higher boost. But i think for high boost F8L has a better setup. Now if i could put an e-fan on there that would really help cool it down in stop and go traffic. Opps gave away another $$ making idea. I hate it when i do that.

Hey I saw your intercooler pics, Just bought the STS kit and a Tune from Nelson.He sent me an e-mail with the intercoller pics like yours but with no scoop on it. About three weeks before I get the STS so I have some time yet for upgrade ideas. The one I was most interested was the intercooler. How much did it cost you and where did you buy from? Also I have to thank you for the feed back when I was lurking for the last few months on the turbo subject, you helped allot. Allen is a really good guy from what I have seen so far! Oh and sorry for whoring the thread guys.

I installed it by myself in about 7 hrs, But that was because i took my time doing it and because i ran into a problem with the tubing being 16" short. But this was the first 6.0 kit that was out before the offical kit was out and there was a problem with the muffler hanger being located farther back than on a 1/2 ton truck and we knew there might be a problem. So i was sort of a guinea pig. But Dave and Jonathan with STS and Allen Nelson did everthing they could to make it right. Talk about great customer service. As far as the install, its easy and they have great instructions and if there's any question they are just a phone call away and it didn't matter what time of the day someone answered my call. If i had to install another i probly could do it in 4 hours.
