So they don’t need or run an intercooler. No cooler stacking.

Also that is a pretty decent size front opening with good airflow direction going into it.
Thanks! Another good idea for the OP: have the turbo stick out of the hood. Probably a solid cooling technique to add to his budgetless build. Either that, or he could add a custom scoop to the hood to channel air to the exhaust components. What other great ideas could we add to this thread to curb these cooling dilemmas?

How about water sprays for the intercooler?
