Looks awsome Tom,

I see that you are looking at putting a intercooler kit in, what make are you considering?

Ya, thanks whitehummh2, those suggestions don't help at all with my addiction!! This is supposed to be a support group!!



as for the intercooler.. looking at doing a custom setup that does not require a body lift.





The fairlead, synthetic line and winch saver got here today, installed them but no pictures yet.



Here are some daytime and mild wheeling shots.

Tom,

Heath sells a water mist injection intercooler. If you want more info on it I would call Heath Diesel and ask to Bill Heath. He is a book of knowledge and is very honest. You are doing alot of nice work, do you mind if I ask what kind of work you do? Just wondering if your shop does custom work on cars of if it is just for fun.

Cheers

Martin

It's already sitting here.. I just don't feel like removing the doghouse at ALL!! I figure I will kill a few birds with one stone when I get injectors to replace to.

Thanks Martin! That's quite the compliment!

I own an advertising firm, and the other half of that shop is my office. The bay door part of the shop is purely for funĀ  <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... >/grin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';D' />
