Intercooler spray bars are useless on these trucks unless you have a turbo set-up with an air to air intercooler.
Bump for discussion.

I think tommorow is the last day for pre-lim deal if you want to get in on it... I tried calling but no answer...:shrug:
My only concern is going back and forth to an A/C specialist for recalibration of the freon level(lbs). Im no expert on A/C's but wouldn't the lbs of freon stay consistient?

Once charged it's done, no need to go back and forth IMO. Just put your name on the list and you're good to go.

no sir, you are incorrect. the pre-lim deals are going until they are all sold. so in other words, the first four special, is good till the first four are all sold. today was just the final day i had for the wheels special for SVTP members. our cost on wheel finishes is going up a bit. but i can still hook up svtp members pretty good ;-)
the boxes are back and are ready to ship..!
just an fyi, the boxes are all plain aluminum finish. while with the welders, they were slid around on the work bench and have some minor surface scratches on the sides (not really visible). the tops of each box are all in great shape. next run we're going to ask the welders to be a litttle more gentle with them but you know how THOSE guys are :shrug:
also, if you keep your stock IC res box AND run the ICey Res, you will need an additional hose since you are adding an additional component to the system. this box was designed with the intent of completely replacing the stock plastic intercooler reseviour box. Bob just had the idea of doing things a little differently, which i will be doing on my own truck as well. :beer: to Bob
what did the cost end up for the kit?
thanks havent been on the boards in a long long time
Ok, question, To avoid condensation, could I just disconnect the AC fan under the dash at the track? (or wire a switch to the fans power lead ) Also, If mounted in its intended location, Will it need the lines extended? And last, Is there a way to mount it where the battery is?(or my case, used to be)
You could do just that or run the fan on LO to cause as little condensation as possible. The IR works the same no matter what fan setting is selected.
It bolts in as intended with little fuss. To change mounting locations you'd need the lines reconfigured somewhat.

well just bit the bullet and sent my payment, I'm excited to see what my temps will be with the heat the 2.6 KB pushes out, I wont be using my stock I/C resourvor since I have the JLP bed mounted super cooler
just got mine in...Any feedback from the guys that have already installed the Icey Reservoir? Did you guys keep or replace the stock IC reservoir? Mine is a daily driver

fwiw, mine is a DD too and im keeping both. the more capactiy the better. i plan to replace my stock box with a custom made ice box (like lfp/pfab/etc). i know some guys run dual electric fans which lose the mounting location though. keeping the stock box is no extra work and only provides extra capacity. win-win situation.
I may try mine again with the stock res but for now it works just fine without it, plus I like the less cluttered underhood I have now.
Just got this in the mail.............
Hopefully this will get my downstream temps to 100* or below and not 175* - 185* and even below that at the track with the JLP bed mounted supercooler

my friend finally finished up his install guide. im going to just review/edit it and i should hopefully have them emailed out to all the buyers tonight. i can also post it here or in a new thread if Fade thinks it would be appropriate.
