Upgraded Bar and Plate Intercooler

The KC Turbos Heavy Duty All Aluminum intercooler is engineered for the 6.0 Powerstroke engine, specifically for the 2003-2007 model years. It replaces the weaker OEM plastic end tanks with robust cast aluminum, enhancing durability and contributing to lower intake air temperatures (IATs). The intercooler features a TIG-welded bar and plate core, which is 25% thicker than the factory intercooler. This design is superior to the stock tube and fin style, maximizing airflow and heat dissipation while reducing stress on the turbocharger. Designed to handle extreme boost levels, this intercooler is rated for over 120 PSI. It is a 100% drop-in ready replacement, fitting directly into the factory location without requiring any modifications. The cast aluminum end tank design is compatible with both OEM and aftermarket boots and charge pipes, ensuring a straightforward installation. The product description also mentions an "Upgraded Oil Filtration" option and a "High Output Install Kit" that may be applicable depending on the specific truck configuration and desired performance level. Note: The product information also references an "Early 1999 product" that will not fit L99-2003 models, indicating the importance of verifying fitment for specific older configurations. Additionally, there are options for "High Output Motor" and "High Output Crankcase Oil Separator Filter" which may require specific installation kits or components.
