Default New part (my secret)

Me and my buddy are thinking of starting to make these and sell them. They are mainly for intercooled cars that have a hard time fitting their intercooler without cutting the stock bumper support. It weighs 5lbs less then the stock one. I have no actual testing on it but my buddy believes it will be stronger. I think their are others out there like these but I have never seen one I liked.






This is my 4" intercooler so you can see how much more room there is now.



Let me know what you think

nice job, before you sell them though, make sure you spell "weighs" correctly, it may hurt your credibility for having good quality

I'm not sure. I'm waiting for him to call me back and tell me what he used. He is woring on my fuel tank right now so it might be awhile before he gets to the phone. He has all the specs I just came up with the design.

When I start making and selling them I will sell them powdercoated for a extra cost or painted for free.

A+ for having the drive to do something like that. Looks very nice and if you're going to start making and marketing those you may want to bet to your nearest patent office before someone steals your idea!

I thought you were gonna use meth injection? Or are you using an intercooler setup AND meth?
