Did you guys go into the interior with the intercooler. I can't tell from the pics, but I would suspect that the clearance would be tight. Also depending on how much boost you are running, those lines to the original intercoolers will not hold long. If that is what those are? Belair composites can make you a set of hoses that will move like the ones you have, just with the strength. Looks great though. Neat setup. Love the scoop on the roof!

Now that is a different and interesting approach. 
Killer Angel is also currently running 1.5 bar. What I really find interesting is the piping leading to the throttle body. I can't tell the size of the throttle body, but it looks unusually large. KA is using a 90 mm TB, what size is the one on that car? 
Does this car have sensor probes before and after intercoolers so as to determine the induction air temperatures before and after the intercoolers and the delta? For your information Andial makes just such a 3 in 1 gauge with sensor probes. I would really be interested in knowing this information if it is available.

It look great, like the 996TT at the 24hr Nurburgring last year.
I'm not sure about how functional it would be though, as I would have thought it is a fairly inefficient way of getting air to the intercooler, I mean the aperatures in the roof scoop are tiny. How do you get any volume or velocity of air over the i/c? I ran huge intercoolers on my old Skyline GTRs to cool 700-1000bhp, but we had over 2 square feet of open i/c face in the wind.

remeber this is a 3rd intercooler so it is helping the 2 intercooler that the car has already beside in the pic the scoop looks small but in real it is big i ll be doing some test about the air temp that is going to the motor and see how much this 3rd intercooler well drop the temp
