After reading this thread, my IC set-up makes me very sad. So many bends!

I have been brain storming lately on how to fabricate some sort of ducting to force air through my IC, oil cooler and radiator.

My Air temps are already cool with the amount of heat insulation and expulsion I have fabricated/added to the exhaust and LIM and ducting to my TID. I get a reading in the TB elbow of 30 degrees C when the ambient air temp is 65-70 degrees F AFTER WOT tuning. Never really budges after that.

My water temps don't exceed 80 degrees C BUT my Oil temps always stabalize at 170 ish F cruising and I would love to get them at about 160.


My boost response is very good granted the lenth of piping and my 62-1 set-up BUT I could imagine it would be even better with some smart refinements.

Any ideas on ducting??
