No matter how much thought I put into it, either the headlight or the radiator get in the way. Both of theese obstructions need to be there... Cant do much about the light, but a thicker but narrower radiator, and some plastic trimming could solve that issue.

There is really no need to go with a massive I/C in a good location when a smallish I/C is good enough in an semi addiquate location. I'm just looking to open up the area under the hood to make room for stuff that cannot be relocated, and to try and gain a little in the way of recovery times and heat soak, with having a couple psi lost to pressure drop as a trade off.

W/M is great, but I dont (and never have) wanted to rely on it. Its staying in the car no matter what, and will probably stay at the mix I had the best cooling results with. I know there is more power to be had from it if I used even the system I had to its peak potential, BUT if I am a hundred miles from nowhere (like I tend to go) and the tank runs out, I dont want to baby it home, or have thoughts of poping my motor again.

When your car is back up and running, you will more than likely use a Vipec and you won't have to worry about running out of meth. As the Vipec has a fail safe and will automaticaly switch back to a pump gas tune if you run out or pump fails.
