Full of cold air!

Bringing it back again.

I'm looking at doing the V1 Nismo bumper conversion since it is better made for directing airflow where it needs to go.

Does anyone have any opinions on getting air to the unexposed half of the intercooler?

Thanks Senna for the cooling idea! I do have the a2w stuff still laying around, so I could probably fashion some sort of spraying of misting system.

Bigger intercooler, precooler pipes, water-meth injection, hood vents, custom front bumper/vents/air ducts, or do them all.

Proper ducting. Box the intercooler in and get a vented hood.

Kudos to Hotrodz he has the best set up I have seen. Just about any hood vent set up will help tremendously to those how need the extra cooling ability.

Hey! I am in the same boat as you with the bumper restricting the IC airflow.
What did you end up doing? I am willing to cut the matte plastic part out from my bumper but I have the 40th Av paint so Im very hesitant..Thanks guys!

I did cut the matte black area on my Black 370, but I haven't done anything yet for my current 370. I'm most likely going to get the V1 bumper and do something along the lines of what Hotrodz did. Also exploring the option of getting a bigger intercooler to also support future mods.
