Where are you going to mount an IC sprayer? How about the container for water/ice?

If you havent seen that nose panel in person I would urge you to take a look, it is REALLY awful.

Sorry man, you have to admit that thing is pretty damn ugly and it totally screws with the body lines.

Would ducting the extra nose vents so as the stock vent feeds the lower half of the intercooler and the new vents feeding the upper half, improve cooling over just extra vents alone ?

I have also located a local Hot Rod shop that can stamp louvers in my hood, will be positioned in between hood braces from above the strut towers to the firewall. These will not be ducted but should allow for more air to be removed from the engine bay.

"Where are you going to mount an IC sprayer? How about the container for water/ice?"

Well, I was menitoning sprayer as that is the most simple and cost effective compared to injection or splitter.

The most bang for your buck, in this topic of cooler charge air paths, is water injection, plain and simple.

But, most kits use your OEM tank or can mount extra in hatch. I know somone has an IC sprayer in here and had it mounted fine.

"If you havent seen that nose panel in person I would urge you to take a look, it is REALLY awful."

I take your word for it. Pics are somtimes very deceiveing compared to seeing in person.
