500o Fahrenheit..
That's enough heat to cook a five-pound chicken in 45 minutes. It's
also the temperature of the air going into your stock intercooler.
Compressed air is heated air and when you combine an aggressive
fuel curve with elevated boost levels, that can lead to convection
oven levels of inlet temperature.
That's why BD
developed the new Cool-It intercooler. With 57% more cooling surface
area and a 33% thicker core (2.68" versus 2"), the Cool-It
increases cooling effectiveness to approximately 90%, compared to
only 70% for the stock intercooler. That can mean a temperature
reduction of up to 200o Fahrenheit over the stock intercooler. At
the same time, the 36% larger inlet and discharge tubes (3.125"
versus 2.625")can handle up to 90 psi of boost and over 1500
cfm, while holding pressure drop to less than 1 psi. (Specs. of

We guarantee
this is the highest quality, best performing air-air intercooler
on the market. Our extruded tube design out performs other inferior
Bar & Plate and Tube & Fin designs. The core size alone
is 2.68" x 28" x 26". The intercooler end tanks are
precision hand welded for increased strength and a beautiful finish.
Increased air
flow, reduced air intake temperature, lower EGT's and higher HP,
that's what you can expect from BD's new Cool-It intercooler.
