i'm kinda of a bonehead when it comes this making stuff on my own so i was just wondering what some guys use for their setup where they got the ic what size cooler etc...thanks
air/water setups

Trouble is finding a air/water intercooler that will hold up most of them only last a couple of hooks. they make some good ones now but they are $$$$$
I'm going to run a Frozen Boost for now since I already bought it. When I talked to Mark at Danville he said lots of guys were running them with no problems. This was before the problem he had on the dyno. There is one guy here that has ran a frozen boost for 2 years and he's running between 90-100psi and it has worked well. Actually everyone I know around here runs frozen boost and they all have good things to says about them. I know we don't have near as crazy as trucks here so maybe that's why we don't have any problems. I contemplated send my intercooler back and but by the time I spend another $100 in shipping I might as well try it. Tony told me to pressure test it before installing so I plan on doing that. On size I'd run as big as one as you can fit.
RobH is running a chizled performance 2000 HP. It is more than a frozen boost, but they are a very nice piece.

thanks for the input now my next ? is where to mount it...under the hood somewhere? or build a weight box and put it in there i just have a weight rack nothing fancy on it now
Get on Facebook and look at tony b page he had his setup really nice on dh 2.0 it will give you a idea anyways I would show you how i am gonna fix mine but I don't have my engine back yet lol

I got a used PT1800 that my fab guy added two additional ports to so the water flows through it rather than around the core and back out the front. Basically made it similar to a PT2000.
My setup is not normal by any means though.
Money no object, Chiseled Performance gets my vote.

I bought a Chiseled 2000 for my truck. I am planning on mounting it in the vicinity of where the drivers side battery normally sits- with the remote mount turbo it will cut the piping length down.

A good spot to look for ideas is on comp d. i mean sort thro the cummins and what not but they have a nice thread for ideas.
The only problem you may run into mounting it there is that the 4 inch in and out may interfere with the master cylinder. Also the water inlet and outlet. One will exit right toward the fender and there is not room to run a water hose to it. We thought about running it there and when it showed up, We decided to mound it different. There just wasnt enought room there.
im going to post pics of the whole set up once its done and on the dyno stand.
the ic is 2 750hp honeywell/garrett cores.
he is very busy with the new shop, but i have to be on the dyno march 1st. wiltse was snoopin yesterday. were getting close. i need to learn to tig weld aluminum.
