Almost two months without an update, haven’t done a ton to the truck just wish I had more time to mess with it but haven’t lately. I did recently put on a set of new rear tires (fronts were fine...) a/t 285/75/16 fit nicely and come out around a 33” tire, which with the 3.55s makes it a highway machine.You must be registered for see images attachhave you noticed a big performance jump with the intercooler? The shop trucks who did fairly well without one! For the install it looks like you just used straight pipe and silicone elbows, is that correct?
Put on one of my intercooler kits, had orders for three so went ahead and made a fourth for this truck. Here’s how it came out

Made a good difference, I opted for the cheapest eBay 33x12.5x3” I could find, and it going to swap it out for a mishimoto I have and make a back to back comparison. Will be interesting to see if it makes a difference at this power level.
Thanks, I think it would be worth a try, I’m sure the design work has come a long ways since the 90s when the obs was made. If you wanna try it I can send you this one I have on now once I go to the mishimoto, if you like it you can buy it, if not just cover the shipping.very nice, i have given thought to pulling out my stock OBS Ford intercooler and trying a smaller one like you have. they "claim" the added efficiency will make up for the size. i am thinking the added airflow over the condenser and radiator would be an improvement. do you know if these intercoolers can match the Ford OBS ones?

No worries, shoot me a pm when you get a chance.thanks, that is a generous offer! i might take you up on that, i don't want to derail the thread but i have not been overly happy with my turbo upgrade and i am starting to suspect a possible intercooler problem. i have just not had the time to give it much attention. i can PM you
