    seriously, whats the point in having a big intercooler if 3/4's of it is covered up and getting no airflow?

    Mine gets good airflow from the standard "scoop" on the GSI bumper, and a little from the grill lol. Mine is the full size from the slam to the cross member and full width too.

    This is the year where hope fails you, when the test subjects run the experimental and the bastard you know becomes the hero you hate.
