Question about heat exchangers?
This might be a dumb question but here it is, is it ok to run an aftermarket heat exchanger on a stock truck and do you need a special tune to do so? And also do you have any pictures of them on your truck? Thanks

No retune needed to run an aftermarket heat exchanger on a stock truck. But, running stock boost, you really don't need to upgrade the HE.

When it comes to intercooler fluid, there is no such thing as too much cooling.

I agree with Tim on that one. I just bought a LFP HE and I'm getting a new larger reservoir too for it.
