Yes sir. It just doesn't get optimum cooling sandwiched between the ic and radiator. Especially since I'm not cutting the bumper opening larger.

I got an e-mail the other day on a new system. Doesn't use water. The unit weights 11 lbs. And I deleted that e-mail too.

Think it was the Nismo oil cooler that mounted in front of the tire. There is a thread on it that people was venting the fender liner. Cutting holes and then glue screen over the holes to keep rocks out.

When I bought the car, it was so low that when my guy was driving from Texas to California, one of the fender liners got completely ripped off. He's got new ones to re-install. Now would be a good time to install vents. That's an easy mod.

A little dremel work, some screen, some backing/framing plate, a few rivets, and you're good to go!

I can definitely see how carting around 50 lbs of ice on the track would be less than beneficial.
