Default Intercooler and fan mounted
Finished up mounting the intercooler and mounted a 16" fan in the front of the radiator. Still need to cut the right tab down and do the plumbing....

Is one fan going to be enough to cool the thing? Because us ATI guys have trouble with one fan. Looks good though.

This is the fan I'm using. No problems keeping the SS at 170 at the track even on a hot day and after a run. SPAL 3000CFM

Cut the center out of the bumper today and put in the brushed billet grille..... The grille made the front end a hell of a lot more sturdy.
