Is my intercooler loosing efficency due to bug goo?
Plague of hoppers! http://www.vincentfurniture.com/phot...p/bugeater.jpg http://www.vincentfurniture.com/phot.../bugeater1.jpg The hoppers were slimed all over my front, in the engine bay, in the windows, EVERYWHERE! |

no not at all.
its because you covered up the entire intercooler with bumper and made no ducting. use a hammer to take the bugs out. |

Technically, since you really only use the first 4 inches of the intercooler to actually cool the intake charge, the extra mass from the hoppers should effectively allow more thermal transfer from the IC itself. :6

you should relocate the license plate and use it as a front spoiler to increase downforce and direct air into the intercooler.
I'm sure that alone will add 5hp AND blow the bugs off the IC |

who the ---- cares if it affects performance? You should be ashamed of riding around like that.
