Description: PPE's Duramax
intercooler is designed to be as large and efficient as possible
while still fitting into a stock GMC or Chevrolet. These intercoolers
will lower intake temperatures up to 120 degrees, flow about
15% better than stock, and will actually result in higher
boost pressures. They also will give up to a 200 degree drop
in exhaust gas temperatures, and are especially useful if
you are in high load situations such as sled pulling, drag
racing, or towing.
For 2001-2010
Duramax diesel engines. Cooling capacity is added to intake
charger increasing the amount of fresh air into the engine while
significantly multiplying turbo charger efficiency which all
equals to more hp and fuel economy. PPE’s intercooler
is the largest, most efficient intercooler in the industry providing
2,142 cubic inches of cooling volume, 98% more volume over the
stock intercooler (which is 1,083 cubic inches).
The factory GM intercooler causes a 2-3 PSI turbo boost pressure
drop in a completely stock
engine because of its small 1,083 cu in internal flow area.
Larger PSI drops can be seen with increased
turbo boost (airflow into engine) causing a loss of power and
efficiency. Pressure drop (wasted energy) is
virtually eliminated with PPE’s larger and more efficient
intercooler.

Increase
your boost pressure by decreasing your pressure loss in
your OEM intercooler
For
every 10 degrees cooler, there is a 1% HP gain
For
every 1psi increase in boost, there is a 3% HP gain
**average
temp. into an intercooler at 30 psi bost is approx 400 degrees-
This means that the intercooler must cool a minimum of 320 degrees
in order to have an 80 degree temp going into the engine.
