Toyota Mr2 Question...
Hey got a ? for you guys...it doesnt really have anything to do with Civics but a FMIC on regular cars like ours will obviously go in the front, i was thinkin of gettin a Mr2 when the questioin popped in my head where does the FMIC (Front Mount Intercooler) go ? In the back or front? I think i've seen it in the front, but i know i have definetely seen it in the back a couple time...B.c. whats the point in puttin it in the front? Motors in the back? and how would you actually do that? I mean I doubt anyon would wanna run a big *** pipe front back to front...let me know guys thanks...

edit: oh yeah, and i only compared the scooby to the mr2 since both stock intercoolers are above the engine, not front-mounted. didn't mean to sound like mr2 was front engine

the stock intercooler is in the engine bay, but it doesn't get the air from the air vents in the bonnet like i thought.
the stock i.c. gets the air from those air ducts behind the passenger-side door.

Rep Power: 0 I think they look retarded as all get out, and when they have the two (one on each side) the car appears to have mickey mouse ears from the front.

Rep Power: 0 Aren't those intakes fully functional? If you ask me, they don't look too bad at all, plus since they actually work I don't see why they're ghey.
