I drove back from up north yesterday through all the mess and ended up with a new way to keep my charged air delivering the coolest air possible to my intake manifold. If we could get this to workin the middle of the of the summer we'd be set!

I left a heater in front of the car for a bit to make sure it all melted off & didn't crack my nice phat intercooler :D

I was thinking about driving in the snow yesterday, but isn't that bad for the intercooler? Like dirty snow getting up in therr???

At least you know how far it heats soaks into the core. ;)

Come to think of it, Chris needs to push the car a little more... Mine only had a couple inches of snow on the cold side. ;)

Lose the front plate already!

Front plate is staying, it didn't have one when I bought the car and I got pulled over 2x for it (and tint), and that was in the first month I had the car!

Yea wasn't in the boost too much, was just cruising on the freeway...and by cruising I mean about 10-30mph for the last 40 miles or so back into the city.

So I take it a little snow can't hurt the intercooler as long as its melted and somewhat dried off after?
