i am needing to intercool my truck but i have no room up front due to the front end being different i was thinking a good place would be under the truck right under the rear doors their is a nice flat spot on the frame to mount it to i know it want be easy to do and ill have to have cooling fans but i was wondering if and what will i have severe turbo lag from it so far away and what can i do to fix it smaller housing on turbo? wild man chip?or is it worth it? towing im runing aroud 1100 all the time and as high as i want to go on hills thanks

i would have to cut up the radiator support and it made a lot different than a 1995 and up and cut up the front bumper for air

Look close Travis, I have looked at this situation on my 91 IDI and there is an ATS cooler kit for the IDI. The core looks very close to the one for the 94 97 PSD. Also there have been posts from a guy who built his own system for an IDI with a SD cooler. I know what you are getting at as far as cuttin, but maybe done with class?

You would really have to do some serious fab work and use a water-to-air cooler (and associated equipment) instead of an air-to-air cooler. Another option would be to see if any (and I can't remember his username [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/phoney.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/phoney.gif[/img] ) of the posts for the "over the engine intercooler" posts are available (he was banned for going completely ballistic on the site a ways back). Needed a humongous hood scoop to cover it though. Cheers!

That's the one (thanks!!!). Didn't say it was a good (or good looking [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] ) idea, just throwing it out there. Cheers!
Nor was I implying [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]. It was pretty nasty looking, wasn't it? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/phoney.gif[/img]

There is an ad in Diesel Power this month that shows one.It's called "Shaker"7.3 Powerstroke intercooler and it's made by Jobe Performance.Looks trick, but I couldn't do it to my hood.

that has got to be the most retarded thing I have ever seen. Why on god's earth would you hack up a perfectly good hood to mount an intercooler in it?
Drugs are BAD!!! Very BAAAD!!
