Crazy Intercooler mounting! I guess since it's probably a Drifting car that the Intercooler is placed there to shorten the Intercooler pipes for quicker spool/quicker response on boost?

A lot of drift cars have their intercoolers setup as so. Not seeing any benefits just leaving a huge gaping hole in the bumper...

With the fans pulling air through, there is minimal impact on anything in front of the radiator. Even the radiator support brace and anything else in front stays dead cold when the radiator gets hot.

Those white wheels look sooo much nicer on it.

Know of any vids with this beast in action?

Great looking car, don't much care for the white wheels. Looks like some time and money spent on that one.


That is some killer humidity buildup in that windshield lol.
