i put the ic set up on the mr2 board, these are the comments:

-It seems like a TMIC would be more efficient, throttle response would have to be affected with this setup. It is unique though.
-Lotta lag, I'd imagine?
-that's pretty crazy, i'd like to see what they did to the engine lid to have that intake placed right there.
-yeah... looks like a whole lotta lag.... but unique...
question about the intake though.... wouldnt the placement of the intake there cause it to suck up a whole lotta hot air since the air needs to pass by the intercooler and engine before it reaches the intake? its not on the "HOT" side of the engine bay... but pretty close to it... just makes me curious.
-should have jsut routed that intake down into the cold air from under the car.
-I'm sure they got that idea from a Twin Turbo Porsche Carrera, the double side scoop intercooler...but it's only operating with a single turbo. A porsche intercooler system comes in parallel to the intake throttle, as theirs is a system that is in series. If anyone have seen a porsche engine, you guys know what I mean.
I guess that helps cooling but has to be some major lag. Gotta upsize the turbo, x 2. The intake placement was a bad idea.
Nice Job though, I must admit.
