Pat, going back to your 1st post with pictures (and getting back on topic)....
That intercooler setup is making my head spin! Twin intercoolers? I need to see that in person to understand it. I've never seen that one before.

Anyone else here detecting Carroll's sarcasm? LOL!He's the first to do it. Pats so innovative!
The dual cooler and associated Y piping was done to keep it on the super cheap when I thought I was doing a $1k car. It's all still on there since 1 - it was already done and 2 - gave me budget room for other goodies. :-)
IIRC Shadow claims to have pushed ~400hp through Y'd dual stock coolers like what Pat is doing. Should be able to support his goals, and honestly, i think it's pretty cool.
Dont push the red button.You hear me?
Out of curiousity Pat why didnt you just weld the two cores together to make a twin core, isnt that what you did on the aries? Packaging would have been easier, but I will say the dual IC setup does look awesome!
It's definitely cool, and different. I happen to have two stock intercoolers kicking around. One's the stock one and the other is from a Daytona/LeBaron. I'm getting stupid ideas....
It should more than support what the turbo on this motor should be able to muster. I'm not too worried.
Aries actually has a triple core cooler I made, which used to be on this Shadow. I almost stole it back but thought this would be a bit different. I didn't weld these two together because I didn't have enough sheet aluminum left from the truck door I scored for free, which means I would have had to budget for the aluminum. With time running out (started this project mid September) I went with what I had.
Dumb ideas usually are amusing ones. :-)It's definitely cool, and different. I happen to have two stock intercoolers kicking around. One's the stock one and the other is from a Daytona/LeBaron. I'm getting stupid ideas....
Good luck, Pat! I honestly don't know if my friend Phil is going this year or not. I need to call him this weekend. He did say that he was revamping the suspension of the Fiesta, so...
I'm cheering on all of our TM guys from a distance!
"Finished" the car (and I use that term loosely!) this afternoon. Wish I had some test time but couldn't make it happen. Seems to run well, turns, stops and made it around the block with nothing falling off so I am calling it good.
Car and truck are loaded up and we're heading out at 5am. Keep your fingers crossed!
Pat
