AFCO Dual pass Intercooler/ w fans
I bought this kit trying to protect my engine. Heat is bad and everything I read this is the first step to control any measure of adding boost. Question has anyone seen actual dyno of the HP boost adding a new intercooler. I have seen a Temp. Dyno dropping intake Temps about 25 deg. I also want to somewhat protect Warranty so I am debating Headers. Intercooler will only help with stress on engine.

an upgraded intercooler doesn't actually make horsepower, it keeps you from losing horsepower to heat causing a net increase. Good upgrade especially with increased boost. At stock boost levels, you will most likely see little difference in performance.

Thks for info. Should help with heat soak especially in the summer. It's an easy upgrade I can do.

Make sure you bleed it properly. I posted a video on how to verify it.
