I have to agree with Mr. Myers  WRT airflow through the intercooler.   Belly
Pan forms the bottom of the duct and forces airflow through rather than
around the IC.

It also forms the bottoms of the ducts which bring air through both the oil
cooler and the intercooler.  With the "sound dampener" absent the cooling
air flow can easily bypass the two heat exchangers.
