Re: S.P.E.A.R.C.O.intercooler guys??

Just thought I'd relate my experience with front mount intercoolers.  Last
year I was at the Diamond Star Shootout (Talon/Eclipses/Lasers).  Guy from
OK named Bill Lawrence came into the staging lanes after his run.  I pointed
out his front mount intercooler and he said to touch the endtanks.  The
intake was on the drivers side and that was pretty warm (140F?).  Passengers
side was the outlet and it felt cooler than the surrounding air (60F?).
Simple test that showed me the value of a proper intercooler. One other
thing, he just got back from running 11.8's at 120mph, nitrous disconnected.
Problem with the Audi's is trying to find enough room to fit one without
hacking up the bodywork.
