well im not cutting mine unless i have to. im not putting the supports back in, and if anything i may make a channel at the bottom to channel the air up and into the core. but i had no problems getting air to my fluidyne rad. ---

yeah there is the one TT mustang that has the intercooler mounted at the bottom of the car like almost under the K member mounted parrellel to the ground. now if that moves enough air then i think chads will move enough air. ---

Ok man my bad … just trying to make your car run 100%. Like i said sweet project just trying to help you make more efficient power. Not saying it wont work … just trying to make it better for free. People run no intercoolers what so ever and it works too, just when they finally add one and get air to it a very very generous power increase is found. ---
