Jim, I would put a screen behind the intercoolers. Rocks over time will close the fins off, and airflow through the IC it self will slow.

Very nice work

What gates are those?

Very nice work!!! Is that just the normal jet-hot coating? both inside and out? Reason I ask is I am debating what to use.

Looks fantastic!

Have you considered using a louvered AL panel behind your intercoolers (wheel side)? If you keep it about a 1/4 off the back and face the louvers downward it would work pretty well at protecting the heat exchanger and allowing adequete flow.

A screen with a tight enough weave to stop small stones will be fairly restrictive.

Thanks everyone

For those who asked, I don't really keep track of how much time or money I have invested into the car. I really don't want to know.

The downpipes are 3inch. I had planned to run 2 intercoolers to get better airflow to the condensor/radiator and also so I could reinstall the bumper support. The cores on each intercooler are 15x6 and 4.2 thick. Definitely marginal for what I'm trying to do, but everything is a compromise.

I'm not all that worried about damage to the cores considering they're in front of the tires, but I guess time will tell.

The coating was done locally by LoKo, and other than the headers dulling a bit, everything is holding up nicely so far. The headers are coated flat black on the inside.
