If you do that mod, then you should mount the intercooler on top of the car to reduce heat soak :lol:
Cool concept, but what is the purpose of it ? Lag would be horrendous I'd imagine. Is it just done when you don't have enough room in the engine bay for a turbo and supporting mods ?
I must admit though, it would be funny as hell to have your intercooler next to your turbo in the rear and have a loud ass blow off valve wooshing at traffic behind you as you.
