Well, now that I have my Ranger (87 w/ 35K miles ) I have been able to get back onto
working on the XR7. Aside from the body work it's getting rear disks, another tranny (tail
shaft bearing killed by way-out-of-balance driveshaft) LA2 ECM(with big VAM) and I'm
working on mounting the IC. I've got an Isuzu piece that I have turned one of the outlets 180 deg so both are on the same side. I think it's going to reside horizontally, low behind the radiator. I was planning on a deflector or scoop to help route the air to/through it and a final plan calls for an extractor vent in the hood to route the air up over the car and to aid w/ flow under speed. I love it when I'm able to do "fun" stuff on the cars.

I can feel the glory. I'm saving up for my big(ger) turbo as we speak. Modding is expensive, but well worth, I love it
