Idea for side mount i/c

[90fourdoor]

I was going to try to post this in the forced induction forum but it wouldnt let me... i was looking at members turbo setups and i saw one with a smic where the battery was located great for the sleeper look. while i was at work i was thinking about it and came up with an idea to mount a fan (radiator style pushing up through the i/c), and a sealed shroud/ funnel connected to a cold air style pipe droping down into the bumper for the cooler air. has this been thought of or tried b4. it just poped into my head

It works. Some people throw slim fans on there intercoolers I dont see why not. Id say attempt it and see how it works. The last person that did it blew his up. MIght wanna read up on his setup and improve it from there.

I did smic for the sleeper look and did ok for a while. I think fmic is better cuz it works more efficiently and as you know that everyone has thier own oppinion or somebody elses opinion.

I was thinking of putting my smic where my battery is, but if i end up getting alot of money and saving more i'll just go straight to the fmic, but the idea of a pusher fan and smic under hood did come to mind, it seems like a good idea

im just thinking about running a smic for the low profile look and to run fewer charge pipes + fewer connectors and clamps = in my opinion fewer places for a boost leak to happen

you could paint the fmic grey or black to make it blend in.
