This is something I have been wondering. WIth a massive intercooler up front, isnt there a modification we can do to our existing bumper or something out there that can flow more air to our radiator?

The fake ducts on the bumper are a perfectly place to put some real ducts to funnel some air around the intercooler. My pipes sit just low enough that they should pass over them

I have all the A/C components but the system is uncharged and is never on. Other than that the only change from stock is the fullblown radiator and fans

So I drove the car all the way to Myrtle Beach and back. While I was down there, I noticed my driver side fan was spinning in the wrong direction -_______-

I looked at both of them about a dozen times and it took me driving 500 miles to notice it was wrong. I fixed the fan while I was down there and I drove all the way back home in 90F temps and the coolant temp stayed at about 190 pretty much the entire time. I'm blown away at how much of a moron I am but I'm glad my car doesn't overheat constantly anymore.

Other than the fan thing, my car ran perfect the whole time. In all it was about 1,200 miles in one week. I drove pretty easy down in back but while in SC I drove it pretty hard.
