runs well
hoping for low 14s/high 13s
its an air/water setup, the box in the bumper is the water tank
its also equipped with alcohol injection

No, the front fits fine. Didn't need any modification at all.

Well I went to race a wrx and was pulling on him hard in 2d from a roll but a coolant line popped off because it was too long so we shortened it, reattached it but air got into the coolant lines and broke the seal on the radiator cap and fried the thermostat, I'll be replacing them both this evening.

I told him I'd only run the same psi as he did and I wouldn't even use alcohol or ice in the tank but he's still skurred :D

whats more efficient? Excuse my ignorance, i don't know anything.

air to water is definetely more efficient

Air to air at 100% percent effeciency (which is hard to achieve) can only physically cool the air down to ambient (outside) air temperatures. Where as water (especially ice water) can cool to temps well below ambient air temps.

Sweet, looks nice Andy!

Hey, thanks B ;)
Yeah, that thing picks up a very noticeable power gains with ice in the tank. Only problem is, it doesn't last but a couple of runs :(
But it's well worth it.

Nice man... I can't wait until I get my turbo on... hopefully in 2 months I'll have the cash to do it, then we can have some boosted races. :D
