Innovate Stage 2 intercooler bleed
 
I'm not really confident that I have removed all of the air from the intercooler plumbing. I was hoping someone could offer any tips/tricks as to bleeding the system to remove all the air. I tried searching without any luck. Thank you!

Squeeze the lines for a long time, they should have put a bleeder somewhere on the system. If I remember keep the cap off and squeeze as much air out of the lines manually,.

You could always take it to a airconeitioning ahop and have then pull a vacuum through the bleed for 20 minutes then fill through the bleed with your coolant...

Kinda like some people do with the radiator

squeeze the lines a LOT. Turn the car to "on", let the water pump turn on, keep squeezing. The pump should not make any kind of gurgling sound once the air is out, should be a slight hum.

If possible, place the pump at the lowest point in the system
