not yet I had ZERO time to make the heat shield when the car was here, and Im waiting to ship a few more things along with it to save on shipping. Apparently the car made 309whp and 190wtq at the same boost level with some minor tweaking to the basemap. Remember, those wheels are 18X12, with 330/18/30 tires Thats a LOT more rotational mass than stockers.

Question about the top mount intercooler, is it as effective as a front mount? Intuitively it looks like there is less surface area for air to cover since it is horizontal. Not hating, just a question.

To properly utilize this system, venting must be installed to prevent air from "spilling" out of the V. That way the air is forced through both the intercooler AND the radiator.
That and you could use radiator fans(Ill be using 4 personally) to pull air from inside the V a little easier.

Awesome setup. Although I personally don't agree with the air flow through the intercooler being in the engine bay as opposed to being front mounted.

I didnt say this was for everyone, thats why we offer either/or. With ducting/heat shielding, the intercooler can be isolated from the engine bay entirely. This is up to the end consumer though
