    Looky looky...







    What do you guys think? This intercooler is amazing... after driving around, the intercooler to throttle body pipe is actually cold to the touch. Last night I touched the pipe after I was driving around, and it felt like the pipe was in a fridge.

      Nice dude! Where did you get your rims at? 13" I'd like to grab some of those for mine as well, as it looks good on your Festiva :wink:

            Looks good dude. Just enough peeking out to show what you got without the "Look at ME!" factor.

                  Thanks guys. I really like it a lot too. As someone said, there is just the right amount of intercooler peeking out from the bumper.

                  Wil, I've been wondering what I could use to bring the bumper back to what it looked like when I got it. I'll try the armour all today.

                  I was supposed to go to the track with the guys from work today, but the RX7 wasn't ready and the Festiva isn't tuned yet. This is the RX7:



                  It has a 1300hp three rotor in it.

                    what intercolor were you running before? was it in the typical spot next to the radiator? and what type of intercooler are you running now? it looks real slick in the spot you have it now. inconspicuous but but not too out of sight. i would of rattle canned it black to keep the sleeper look. but thats just me.

                    it looks awesome front mounts rule

                      Nice and stealthy. Tube/Fin? Oh well, should work okay. Its not like your car makes serious HP.

                      Side note! paint it flat black so its totally sleeper.

                      Thanks :wink:

                            You don't need serious HP when you know how to drive.

                            It's an SRT4 intercooler.

                            Thanks :wink:
