This article is dedicated to those of you who are interested in learning some useful facts relating to intercooler boot kits. The primary function of intercooler boots is to connect the charge air system between the engine and the intercooler. The Source Automotive intercooler boot kit for Dodge Ram applications utilizes eight (8) T-bolt clamps that are made of 300 series stainless steel with zinc coated bolts with a high yield strength. We chose non spring loaded clamps as our testing indicated we could retain more boost using these clamps instead. The boots themselves utilize a high temperature oil resistant silicone outer layer designed for exceptional strength, good looks and for longevity. The silicone is laminated with an Aramid material for both superior strength and function.

Source Automotive uses four (4) and five (5) layers of material dependent upon your application and intended boost values. The main purpose of designing an upgraded boot kit is to offer a product with a higher quality than the OEM design that will hold up to the conditions that you subject them to. Stock boots are acceptable on a stock application for a limited amount of time. They deteriorate as you accumulate some miles and years.

Source Automotive intercooler boot kits offer an affordable upgrade when the time for replacement comes. If you increase the performance of your engine you will often experience issues with the original boots. We test and run these intercooler boot kits on our own daily drivers and race trucks. We have the knowledge and experience to offer proven solutions to your intercooler boot needs. Don't sell yourself short with an inadequate component that might leave you stranded on the roadside. Intercooler boot kits designed by us, made exclusively for us. We are not willing to settle for less. Why should you?
