This week I had the DLM Inter-Cooler and Pump upgrade for my Paxton installed by Doug. After picking up the beast from Doug's shop today I took a drive on I-75 and performed several spirited runs. Temp was 89 and have to say that I highly recommend the upgrade over the conventional setup. I can now sustain multiple boosts without the intermitent cooling off period. The Cooler makes a clean fit to the extent you have to look for it. For those already with a Paxton SC its a small return on investment.

In March I had Doug install the Paxton with the large cooler and pump-its worth the extra money. Got about 6500 miles with the DLM SC set up and not 1 problem.

After talking with Doug.. I am having that put on my car also.... :)
He told me it makes quite a difference in cooling...

Did any of you guys go with his belt tensioner? I went with his cheaper one for now....

I will definitely say that bringing my viper to Doug's was the best thing I could have done..

Nothing crazy right now... Had to fix some issues...

My driverside cat was bad.... Putting in a boost gauge and a a/f gauge...also upgrading the wires to Ab's and putting in a new modified thermostat...

Had an issue with the O2 sensor...Doug had to weld in a new **** for the O2 sensor to go in...

I told Doug today after reading your post to put the belt tensioner and the new intercooler and pump setup......

We were waiting on my wheels to come in from Iforged... They took 10 weeks...

I should be getting them tomorrow and there getting sent right to Doug with brand new PS2's...

I can't wait to get back in the car.. It's killing me...

What have you had Doug do for you????

Steponz-I know how difficult it is to wait-But believe me its worth the wait. I believe ART 138 will agree.

I had the DLM tensioner installed-no belt slipping problems.

I already had the 3.55 gear and Doug installed a light weight fly wheel and his exhaust system. I also got Doug to put on the 19" Hoosier A6's on the rear.
