Upgrade to the powerstroke intercooler and cool tubes.

I want to. Trying to make sure one will fit with the factory transmission cooler.

I've come to the conclusion that a 7.3 intercooler won't fit with the trans cooler in place so I'm looking at universals + a little fab work as an alternative. Now just hoping the little guys will actually hold a decent amount of boost, 35ish... guessing. I assume that they're meant for gas motors where 20psi is high.

If anyone has any good leads hit me up. Otherwise, I'll report back with a success story or a blown up intercooler story.

An eBay intercooler plus a few couplers, connectors, elbows, t bolt clamps, and presto! No pics with the red couplers, they looked hot.

Held tight at 32psi.

Thanks for the help fellas! When you can't see the forest due to the trees it's nice to have people to lean on.
