well if it makes you feel any better, i've seen pics since that shoot, and it doesnt have the intercooler on it. so that means one of two things...

1. they didnt wanna keep it on there - so you could be one with a sustained intercooler, or
2. something went wrong and you could be the one to figure it out!

looking back over the article, they didnt really dicuss the intercooler. they just mentioned readers asked if they would do it, and they did it. no other pics of it except that one. i wonder how legit the intercooler was ya know? like they just put it in there for show...

lmao... this is so wierd how this works: I started out just wanting a couple little mods. a couple go-fast, a couple aesthetics. then I wanted more. then I wanted a little boom boom. now I'm just all out everything. even further, now I'm thinkin about the weight of the car stock and all the stuff I'm adding to it. I'm thinkin of ways to cut weight... which means now I'm removing the rear bench and adding cf pieces!!! this is an expensive (but fun) hobby!
