Frozen intercooler. *NOW W/ PICS!!*
So, here in Utah we just got 19" of snow in 2 days and as the icicles formed on my Tyrus intercooler I thought with that cold of air, my car should be up to it's peak performance, but unfortunately, with 19" of snow it's pretty hard to get any traction.
Look closely at the background of these pics to get an idea of just how much snow there is

Re:Frozen intercooler.
I thought it would be fun at first. I went and spun doughnuts in the parking lot for a while. But it's not fun anymore when you're afraid of spinning doughnuts on the freeway like everyone else.
Oh and I just saw the weather report: 6-18" between tomorrow and tuesday, another storm new years eve, and another this friday.
Man, a half-hour drive all of a sudden can get quite extended in those condtions!

Re:Frozen intercooler.
The snow here (Northern Ohio) was sorta bad around christmas... my dx had some trouble moving though.... since I have to push it from the parking space into the garage to be worked on... 
but last year when I bought the car, I went to the mall and had some fun!! Not very good traction, and not too good at going in reverse (directional tires) and not too good of turning at high speeds.. lol
