We have been tossing around the idea of a A2W for my new prostreet truck for next year vs the idea of no post turbo cooling before going to the engine. My fabricator has A TON of knowledge with turbocharging and A2A and A2W coolers in the gas world but limited experience with diesels. I had mentioned the possibility of not running any kind of cooler and he was shocked. I know some go this route and others choose to go with A2W and some still with A2A. I am definitely not for A2A as a 4" Hogan omg isn't exactly the best thing to hang off the front of a drag truck lol. In talking about A2W coolers I knew that they would need to be capable of at least 120psi he talked with his supplier he regularly uses and they came up with a 2500hp 180psi rated core that has a LARGE price tag. I then found a frozen boost core type 22 for ALOT cheaper with water tank etc. So my question what are some of your opinions, how much reduction in temps could I see, im expecting that the a2w full would be around 100lbs planned to mount it in the cab (which im not a huge fan of aluminum shrapnel) or run piping thru the cab back to the bed for a safer option.
