what not happy with digging up some photos of both an intercooler set up, similar to what you're after, and a rollcage:duh
i think boofs set up is great.
cheers
heres another one-L.M.S water to air-not so much work, less intrusive!

I suspect a decklid is the least of his concerns...
4 barrell drawthrough carb + intercooler = crazy big explosion on backfiring 
Ask Trent Demos what happens when you use a revlimiter on a drawthrough setup. He shattered his inlet manifold when it backfired and the pooling fuel
exploded. An intercooler full of fuel would be much much worse. Think miniture world trade center on sept 11.
Why haven't the Yanks got the whole EFI thingo yet? :o

Got a water to air yesterday....$100. Needs a pump though. Now, where to place the radiators.....wherever it may be, rest assured there will be some
form of massive scoop or duct infront of it!
Too much time on my hands, I need a job thats not 2 weeks off and one on.
