Well I finally got a chance to work on the heat exchanger project. This is the first 100% bolt in unit for a reasonable price. Over twice the thickness of the stock one with much better flow characteristics. Single pass design is more efficient than multi-pass designs.

Core is 27x13.5x1.75

No cutting or drilling for installation

Lookin tough behind the grilles

$299. PM me for order info.

Looks great. I might have to start spending some money your way.

Looks like it will perform much better than the factory unit. Its too bad that its so visible behind the V grill, the look just isn't my taste. Do you think painted endtanks would make it look more "factory"?

You could always dust it with satin black paint to make it less visible. That's all the factory does. I don't think it affects the heat transfer too much as long as you don't drown it with paint.

Yep mine on my 06 just one coat of black and you can't even see it. Looks good Timmy might get that for the new car see how the d3 stuff works first be for I take it all off..

How much of a temp drop have you seen in your IATs with the bigger heat exchanger?

 

[CMNTMXR57]

What all is involved in terms of parts and install. $299 is a great price. Yea, I know, remove the front bumper cover...

There is too much snow on the ground to do much testing right now.

It comes with bolts and hose to tie into the stock piping. There is one tee fitting on the inlet side of the pump that needs to be turned around but that's pretty much it.

Do you need to upgrade the coolant pump to compensate for the extra volume?

 

[TimmyC]

A coolant pump upgrade is not required to use this heat exchanger. It doesn't matter how much coolant is in the system; the pump will circulate whatever is in there just the same.

When are you planning on having a turn-key kit?

where did you get the blackhousing headlights or did you have them taken apart and painted?

Hey I have 2006 sts v I was curious where do u purchase this intercooler and what what r temp drops my high is 228 and my low is 207. I have an air intake 1 and 2 and a maga flow exhaust system. Would fuel injectors make a difference in temp? Where can I contact u ? My email is [email protected]. Thanks

Your intercooler pump is broken.

 

[youknooow]

Your intercooler pump is broken. I can get you one for $109 shipped. Email me at [email protected] to purchase.

What should his temps be? those are similar to mine in 90 degree weather Sub 230 after a few hard runs a little over 200 in city traffic.

 

[TimmyC]

110 cruising, 150 at the end of a wot run.

Your pump is broken too.

Or all the coolant leaked out.
