Default well depends how you look at it, a fan would draw more heat away from a bigger core

but stock ic needs every bit of help it can get

i'm just against adding little things to extract more power, our cars are not track or drag monsters. meth, nitrous, etc is just more crap to blow the engine up since it's not been built right.

good turbo, good IC and everyday reliability without worrying about filling a tank or turning a switch, that last 5% of power is not worth the risk

Default Oh don't get me wrong I know the FMIC is more effecient by placement alone

but I just don't wanna have to cut up the bumper and all this other stuff that goes into adding one of them

I did not have to cut anything off my bumper, or anything else!
