Description
Upgrade your factory cold side intercooler tube on your duramax to AFE BladeRunner tube for a 6% flow increase. Flow and Performance: Constructed of 3"mandrel-bent aluminum tubing for maximum flow then, powder-coated for a nice finish. The high-temp wrinkle-black powder-coating also insulates the tubes from engine heat and protects the tube from corrosion. Also included, one 1/8" NPT port is provided for connecting a pressure sensor or water methanol injection. The smooth transition bends decrease turbulence and minimize pressure loss, while increasing horsepower and torque. Installs on the Cold-Side to transfer cooled air smoothly to the engine for better performance. Perfect Fit: Utilizes the factory mounting locations for a hassle-free installation. Includes high quality stainless steel T-bolt clamps and heavy-duty 5-Ply polyester reinforced couplings for strength. Fits OEM or aFe's upgraded intercooler (46-20111). aFe Badging: A unique laser-cut aFe power logo plate is welded-on for an aggressive style.

Nice, but

"Packaged well, comes with everything and instructions. I inspected the pipe, it had some gunk on the inside i had to clean out, not a big deal. I thought they sent the wrong couplers. Turns out they are just a B1+$h to get installed on the truck sides. (Heated them in hot water and sprayed both surfaces with windex and was able to muscle them on). Also it said to use the larger clamps on the truck sides. All four clamps included were the same size and slightly too small for the truck sides. I wanted to make sure i was sent the correct clamps so i called diesel power products and they referred me to call AFE directly. I called AFE and was directed to the right person who wasnt at their desk so i left a msg. They never called me back. I ended up having to grind the springs on 2 of the clamps shorter and still barely managed to squeeze them onto the truck sides. Installed it looks nice and is an upgrade over my stock plastic one that blew the o ring out. Ive had this on over a month now and havent had any issues. I would get this again and recommend, but note the clamps and maybe get 2 bigger ones."

Q&A

I am just wondering if this intercooler pope allows you to plug your sensors back in so my truck won't throw any codes.
Yes it will have the correct ports to plug in the charge air temp sensor. *DK*
