I have a 04.5 5.9L with egts reaching 1500 degrees in the first 100 feet was wondering what intercooler water meth and anything else I should go with to cool it

But with a larger turbo wouldn't you just be supplying more air to burn more efficient and not really cooling it?

If you have a stock turbo its choking the motor. Let it breath And burning it more efficiently will cool it
What for tuning are you using?

you are running the hot unlock without a bigger turbo, or touching your injectors.... didnt you read the disclaimer you received?
