I finally started working on the duct system for the intercooler. I have built bucks to do a vacuum formed scoop, but I can't seem to find a vacuum forming machine to do it, plus I'd still have to work out how to get the air to the IC. This way I just need to hook up flexible hoses to a plenum around the IC. It's easier, will look ok, and mostly it just makes having the quarter windows pop out much easier. It was a PITA, but seems like it will work. Next some testing to confirm I'm actually getting the flow I need.
