Bingo.

Not to mention putting the intake down where all the road debris is flying around and counting on a simple K&N cone filter to "filter" it. Not to mention, you're ingesting the hot air wash off the engine. The CO2 loop on the inter coolers is novel, but, you can't run that every time you want boost.

I'd also be curious to see how much turbo heat is rising up into the trunk via the vented trunk floor right above the turbos. I assume the idea is that hot air is exiting there but given the trunk is in a low pressure region behind the back glass, I wouldn't be surprised if the hot air is getting sucked up into the inter coolers though that vented panel.

Looks great on a hoist though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) Cool toy for talking about at cars and coffee. . . practical, not so much.

In reality, I'm just jealous I don't have this kind of time and or spare $$ to be doing projects like this. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
