No. You can see all the pipes, none of them go to an intercooler.

That's pretty sweet. It's good to see someone who went above and beyond a FIPK.
Whats it like?

Lets see if I can answer everything lol.

i bought the Charger for $1000 from my boss. He had it in his Durango.

It came with everything. Charger, Vaccumm lines, Extra Fuel pump, Hobbs Switch, Fuel regulator and air filter.

the hardest part of the install was trying to get around the oil dip stick. You have to kinda bent it back a little and up and inbetween the charger braket.

It has no Inercooler, this one dosnt come with one. The procharger does no the PowerDyne that I have.

Its freaking awesome when I put the peddle to the metal!

I have a rebuit transmission and it is working great, I also have a rebuilt axle. Everything is good... So far! haha

I put a MSD Retard box on. I do not have to take away much timing at all. I havnt had it ping yet. But I dont want it to so I am playing it safe.

I had to get a bigger belt to run everything. alot bigger. well i mean longer. The only thing I had to buy at the parts store was another pully that I put on the spring loaded pully to take the slack away. i put on the smooth pully to take away slack.

The air filter that is on the pipe going to the TB... Yea it said to put that on there so i did! lol.

And the Timing and all that has not changed. I just let the retard do that for me. I have full exhaust and I think that has helped out alot.

The total cost of everything because I bought it from my boss was roughtly $1050. Thats with the pully and Belt!

I am going to make a video of me driving it showing the speedo and such so I will have that up shortly!

Anymore questions I will do my best to answer. I know the basics of this stuff but not to deep on the details.

Hell for thousand dollars I'd have done it too. That's awesome.

Well I drive alot of highway because of my business. Since I put it on I went from 14mpg highway to 17-18mpg highway. Thats with cruise control on and just chilling at 70mph.

But in the city i get like 6-7mpg because its so damn fun to punch it and take off.

When I start the motor it sounds like a Air Craft Carrier. So Awesome!
