P.S.it seems you have cut the bonnet and used some mesh where the intercooler is? do you have some kind of "scoop" or external air guide/feed to the intercooler?
i was wondering if this current set up will cause the engine to see higher than normal air intake temps while driving, if there is no constant air flow over the intercooler...possibly resulting in some knock and ecu retard timing, essentially reducing performance?? this is just a side thought
the mesh would help with letting hot engine air out when you stop and possibly while driving...but i'm talking about cooler air reaching the TMIC while driving.
i suppose the FMIC set up in the future will cure these issues, but you still have to deal with the present as well
Are you talking about the IC protector of about the scoop on the h
My bunnet has been cit and we asses a scoop.
There’s a hole on the bonnet with a grill for protection and the scoop is big enough to drain rain with mout falling in. I didn’t get the IC plastic protection when I bought the engine. Is it enough?
