Yes it is the treadstone intercooler! Highest I've seen IAT's so far was 130. That was after being on the trans brake twice due to staging error and then a full 1/8 mile pass with ambient temperature being 80*.
BTW just a small update on the trans, shift linkage started to rub frame a little and was binding which caused the bracket we made to start flexing causing the missed shift. New bracketry in the works..

OP when you get a chance....would like some pics of how tight it is around the turbo (abs box, waterpump, rack, balancer, rad fans...etc), how much modding was done to fit the Treadstaone ?? Also a pic of the turbo mount/brace you ended up with.
Thanks...and congrats again on a killer machine.

Here are some closer pics of the piping and the way it was routed.
Sorry for the cell phone pics I cant find my camera
Hopefully this will give you some info on what your looking for LSOHOLIC. I can get some better pics if I find camera and get it off the jackstands and outside.

Some of those pics are deceiving as far as clearance goes. There is about a fingers width of clearance in the tightest spots, like around the idler pulley and the abs unit. I'm no photographer, didn't get the right angles LOL
