Mine was done like 12 years ago and I’d like to do a custom made Vibrant to replace the eBay one since I think it would dissipate heat more efficiently. It fits behind the stock grill, with a massive tranny cooler behind it, running oem radiator. Here is the size I have IIRC.

This is my set up for my intercooler
Lets see more of that beauty!
How does the trans cooler or anything else for that matter fit 😮 looks good though I like that a lot
I'm using nv4500 so no transcooler. AC condenser stays the same,i remember i had to lengthen the line for the air dryer tho.
looks like a lot of hood clearance is going to be needed ! lol!! But yes a/w Ic are the best for diesels . I shouldn’t need to worry with my small 4bt but hopefully proper tuning of the VE will bring the temps down low enough to not worry.
you have a build thread for this fancy thing .?
No kidding… P-Pumped…🤤
Were those hood vents on the side already on there or did you do them at the same time ? I’m looking to put some to keep my engine bay a little cooler , hopefully keeping the engine cooler while I’m at it
If you check my thread out starting here on page 11, you can see how I did my intercooler and how I ended up having the piping ran. Someday I might change it to have the piping ran under the headlight instead of through the wheel wells, but I have had 0 issues with it how it is currently.
Cummins swap time!
Hydroboost showed up, I have it mostly installed. Realized I ordered regular AN fittings instead of PFTE ones - so I have to re-do some of my lines. No big deal. For the life of me I can not find the adapter fitting to go from the Wilwood master to the Toyota brake lines. I remember seeing it...

Replaced my HX-30 holset with the HX-30 super holset turbo last weekend.
Zero turbo lag. Immediate response. Factory setting for the wastegate is 20psi. This 46mm compressor wheel moves the air! I just got an adjustable elbow restrictor that will allow adjustment to when the wastegate opens. Need to also get more tubing for it but boy what an upgrade without going to compound turbos!

Looks like that will be my next upgrade hm
Got my block heater installed. Now looking at this oil pan heater. Threads into a 3/4” port in the side of oil pan. Anybody know what size threads they are?
No idea, I do recall a threaded bung in the side of my oil pan.. maybe that is what it is for...
