Where with the a2w not even in the same league on the track especially with ice

Gained a bunch of cooling system efficiency with the a2a gone too
All very true. I think one of the biggest requests for help in the FI forum is cars with big fmic's having overheating issues.

The more I look at mine, I think I'll be using a Frozen Boost type 5 under where the battery/horn are. Least amount of stuff to move.

I'm thinking that I want to mount mine like Mightymouse had his but I want to see if there is room for the inlet and outlet to be facing up right there. Might have to modify the frame rail for that though. I'll have to take some measurements and see what I can put together.

Anyone know where to get a complete kit or is it better to get a dual pass core IC and piece the rest together?

Let's keep the pics coming

Ahh...there is an outlet you can't see perhaps? lol. It came with my "kit"...never used. 2 inlets, 1 outlet(center behind the red hoses) hoss.

The purpose of a heat exchanger is to essentially reduce your intake charge. -Captn. Obvious.

Me too but I'm not counting on it. I'll just piece mine together and modify what I have to.

Chris@CBR makes one I believe. It is very nice too. Problem is most won't pay for a kit that bolts right on.
