Intercooled 12-ht

I had thought about a hood scoop for an intercooler as well. Actually I was wondering about it for moving the AC rad so as to improve the effeciency of the engine radiator especially on really hot days and steep hills. (pretty much when you want the AC on right?)

The Nissan patrol pic is good to see this in action. Any other experience with hood scoops out there? Good hood scoop sources?

We often get temperatures in Oz that are well into the 40 degrees celcius, the air is used all the time in the north with no problems so long as the cooling system is ok. Weather forcast for today is is mid 30s with 90% humidity, will give you an idea. cheers

I bought the air cooler, the water cooler, the reservoir, the pump and some silicone hoses used for about 158 usd. Then i bought some pipes, hose clamps, bolts and some more hoses for maybe 80 usd, so everything for about 240 usd.

very very good .. !!! so cheap.

Hoodscoop

Added a hoodscoop. Bought a universal fiberglass scoop in a local ricer shop. Looks kinda cool to me...

The flares

No I bought them from a fiberglass-shop, but had to work the edges of them to make´m fit the fenders perfectly.

That air scoop looks great. Would suit the HJ75 also,LOL. Will have to look into one. Was wondering what is all that crap on your motor or is it the picture? Maybe sprayed on insulation to keep it warm.

Denco doese a simular kit, simple install and good gains.

The kit is a self contained unit with radiator and the radiator is placed on top of the engine, very compact.

I will have to try out thier water to air kits one day.
