Got my intercooler from ETS. Pretty sexy looking.

Turbo/wastgate/bov are still waiting at doctors of performance. Waiting for the JGS wastegate then it will ship out.

Got the intercooler hanging now. I will clean up the mounts, and get them coated with everything else when the time comes. Brackets were super simple. Chopped down 1" aluminum angle. Counter sunk allen head bolts.

From the side. Camera flash, without flash its barely visable but I am going to paint the intercooler semi gloss black.

essentially yes. The escalade 6.0l is a lq9. Has higher compression pistons in it. 10.4:1 vs 9.6:1 or something like that. I have the LQ4 which has lower compression(I wanted this for stock w/ boost) like I'm doing to get everything rolling.

Its easier and sounds more baller to say its from an escalade then to say. Its from a 2003 Chev 2500HD pickup truck.
