Couple of trivial questions maybe someone would be able to help answer for me and make a matter of public fact so that these questions would not be continually aimed at Turbo Trix. I think they may get tired of answering the same questions about their car over and over.
1. Just air to water intercooled? No front mount at all? I seems to me that the pipe visible through the bumper fascia just crosses directly over and is taking the route to make plumbing easier and keep it away from the manifold heat, but I'd love to hear a little more about this unorthodox manner of cooling the intake charge.
2. Is there any benefit to going with AN radiator lines other than having a much lighter pocket? Any more specifics on the radiator used in the car would be interesting to me as well.
3. It looks like there is -8 line used for the fuel to the afpr, but a -6 line is used for return, that's not an overrun problem?

no front mount they pump ice water through it
dunno about the hoses but they look hot and are easy to disconect, there radiator is small
keep in mond on both of the answeres above they only run the car for what 3 minuts at a time and all of13 or so second of hard driving
as for question 3 i have no clue but im sure the car uses up the majority of the fuel anyway so it dont make a diference lol

2. The AN radiator lines help keep the radiator lines from bursting if they blow a head gasket.
3. I guess they figured they did not need a -8 line going back though you usually want the same size going back or a little bigger.
