This BD Diesel Intercooler/Charge Air Cooler is for 2001-2005 Chevy LB7/LLY Duramax trucks.

BD’s free flowing Charge Air Cooler (CAC) - or intercooler - is designed with streamlined external air passages and it improves engine cooling while producing less fan noise and less blade resistance. Plus, it improves engine power and the efficiency of the radiator and air-conditioning heat exchangers. Designed through testing at 100+ psi turbo boost pressure and 500oF turbo outlet temperatures, the extra thick cast end tanks with support struts are made to endure without ballooning and cracking.

**Other Manufacturer's Stuffed Tube CAC

Stuffed Tube designs are commonly used on stock applications with lower boost pressures (20-40 psi) and 200-300oF inlet temperatures. The tubes have thin walls and only 82% heat conductivity transfer. Higher boost pressures and temperatures will cause the breaking of fin-to-wall welds which in turn can result in the ballooning of the tubes and reduced heat transfer.

BD Diesel's Micro Extruded Tube CAC

Micro Extruded Tube design, on the other hand, is for applications producing 20-100 psi of boost pressure and inlet temperatures of 500+oF. BD tubes have a 0.025” wall thickness and are designed to enhance inner fins that add to performance and the already strong support structure. These improvements result in a 95% heat conductivity transfer rate. When tested at over 400 psi, they displayed no cracking or separation.

Higher turbo boost pressures results in lower EGT's.

The lower the turbo boost pressure drop across the CAC (inlet vs. outlet) the higher the volume flow ” the more volume of air that can fl ow through the CAC and the higher the turbo boost pressure will result in lower exhaust gas temperatures (EGT). BD’s Cool-It CAC’s are designed for performance diesel engines.
