Yes pics please. What's the a/r for for both comp and turbine ? Why did you decided to go a2w is this just for 1/4 ?

Sounds like your ditching something that cost a good bit to build.

No this setup is good for the streets. Air to water intercoolers are fine on the streets. I have a bunch of pictures on my phone so feel free to text me 804 516 2197

Air to water is the way to go. That's why modern vehicles (Subaru, Ford) use Air to Water intercoolers.

He says there hand built in the add. That's a nice clean setup? How much boost could this setup make?
