I don't see how the flow on the front mount intercoolers for our cars could be good with the inlets both on one side. wouln't the air just flow into the other end of the intercooler, and then hit air coming in on it's wat out and whatnot? maybe I am misunderstanding the way an intercooler flows or something. seems to me like the top to bottom flow intercoolers would be more efficient for our cars. somebody straighten me out if I'm wrong.

The ones that have the inlet and outlet on the same side have a partition so the air has to travel all the way across and back.

that was my idea. i didn't know they already were like that, and thats why i thought it was dumb. i was layin in bed last night, thinkin,"why wouldn't it be seperated in the middle, go across, into the endtank, and out the bottom?" but if that's the way it already is, then nevermind. damn, I'm a fuckin genius.
