more air flows over the lower part of the inter cooler where it's placed. More air flows through the top of intercooler where the pipeing is. flip it over and make it more efficiant. simple enough, well not really cause them you'd have to redo the intercooler piping.

In my opinion I really don't think it would make that much of a difference (if any).
Look all thousands of high horsepower cars out there that have the same setup.

Glad to read everyone's input though.

Ahhhh makes sense now. I was confused from the way dj55b worded it.

Looking at that graph though, I'd assume you are having ignition breakup issues.

yes we are so we didn't raise boost until that is addressed.
