HAHA. That is Donald's old employer.


He sells pretty nice t-bolt clamps too. I'm going to run that same one on my hatch.

water > Air inter's are 14x more efficient than air>air... water pump can be any 12v pump you can find. Just find yourself a nice water tank with a big lid so you can stuff tons of ice in it!!! My bro and I used a water > air on his turbo vette and everytime he turned on the pump it would cool the engine down so much that it went back into cold-start mode. Most of the time he would leave it off until his foot felt heavy.

W0rd. I'd imagine that thing would heat up pretty good without water going through it. There's got to be some kinda of mix to get below freezing temps without damaging the IC too. I have NO expeirence in this field though, so, haha....good luck and seems cool. I have a windshield wiper motor/tank if you want one to. PM me.

That thing looks like it would be a bitch to keep couplers on it. There isn't much meat there.
