Talking New I/C(aftermarket)

Just wanted to give a heads up, I spoke with some people at Turbonetics/Spearco, and they are almost done developing an aftermarket I/C for our trucks. They said they would call me in a few days for some testings. I'll give you more info when I get it.

If you want to check out their website, it's: www.Turboneticsinc.com

If you want to, you can call them and speak with George, or Johnny.

It should be very interesting to see what they've changed.

Is it designed for use with the existing upper intake, or is that modified as well?

Marcus, will this be on the heat exchanger side, or in the manifold?

Phil has a larger one mounted in the front of this truck. I think JBA did it.

I also spoke to the representative from Spearco while at FFW in Orlando and was told the following...The new kit would include both an intercooler and a heat exchanger along with required plumbing etc...Initial testing and or engineering showed a 40 degree drop in charge air temp..

This will be a direct replacement. Not sure on all the parts that come with it. Easterisalnd pointed me in the right direction for this. I'll make sure to bring a notepad and pen for all the good notes, including, what hardware, and price, etc.
