    Wouldn't that like flood the motor w/ air and you'd lose power (i think i heard that somewhere I could be making that up tho, and about to be flamed for it) X_x

    i think there is some truth there, but it's turbo, so just crank up the boost,lol.

    No, you'd just have a little more lag, if I'm not mistaken?

    Yup. Nothing a little more boost can't fix.

    Looks good, my question is...since you are A/Cless, why not run a better flowing manifold? Or is that in the future?

    lolsssssssss

    No, an intercooler can't allow any more air to enter the motor than your turbo will physically pull in itself. Having an IC that's too large will cause a lot of lag, but nothing harmful. You'd be surprised at how small an IC can usually be.
