Question Any Stock Intercooler mods?

Just wondering, when outside air goes through our stock intercooler and draws all the hot air through it, where does it exit to? Does it end up right on top of the Intake Manifold??? There is a shroud or some sort of a shield that riveted on the underside of the stock intercooler and the opening to it is very small near the outlet of the intercooler. Can this shroud be removed for improved efficiency?

find a windscreen squiter bottle and pump wire it up to a toggle switch on the dash somewhere, put it in the spare wheel well or elsewhere outta the way, connect enough hose to get it to sit on top of your intercooler, get a Y joint and conect it back onto itself, and put a pill of little holes in the ring which sits on top of the intercooler. fill up the bottle with cold water and before you go for some on boost action give it abotu 10 seconds squirt.
