If you contact these folks, they will build one to your specs, or help you design one to siut your needs. So far they have been well below the price of all the mass producers out there. May want to talk to them to see what they can do. I have only used the shop in Carlinville, IL, don't know anything about the other one, but the folks here sponsor many different truck and tractor pullers and know these truck inside and out. www.areadiesel.com

I am using a intercooler from Dura-Lite and love it.Its larger than the stocker and is a bar and plate design for better air flow.On my digial gauges I have seen about a 10% drop in my egts under heavy throttle and I have noticed that with it getting warmer out it has dropped my lag somewhat.They have a 7 year/100,000 mile warranty on them and will handle 100 lbs of boost.It was some of the best money I have spent.....Andy
