I remember seeing a guy Running E-85 and no IC on a DSM with a very large turbo(20g i think) running only about 16-18psi to keep the temps down some and did very well knock/intake temps. I thought about short routing my Stealth for one day with E-85 but after feeling my intake air temp coming out of the bov after a decently long day.... i started to think maybe it was a horrible idea.

Gotta admit, you don't see a TMIC very often on cars other than subby's.

Better than this car(Weird use of a DSM SMIC):


Or this one(TMIC on a Civic FTW!):

Yes they are, the air comes in the front of the car(over the Radiator i believe) and up on top of the IC and down though the motor. They designed it so it would flow out with the rest of the air coming though the radiator though the bottom of the motor so there's no risk of backwards flow of air, even at idle. I.E. the radiator fan motor pushing air into the engine bay and up out though the TMIC piping.
