Secondary Rad(putting on flame suit...)
I was pondering somthing, I just ordered a TII Hood from FC3S PARTS GUY on this board and was thinking... I dislike most things on a car unless they have a reason to be there(orignaly thinking i just liked how it looked...) I may go Turbo eventualy, but untill then, I was considering a secondary Rad above where the Intercooler would go... I dont think that it would be hard and might actualy keep the darn thing cooler... besides I dont wana use it just keep my TPS cool...
My second Idea was to run a secondary "Cold Air" Intake Routing...
What else could I use it for?
What do you guys think? Opinions, Comments... Flames...

yeah dude...no secendary rad..just upgrade your stock one (im assuming its stock) Its pretty hard to heat up a RX7 with a good koyo, or any other aftermarket rad. And, i wouldnt build a CAI to work through the scoop either. You'd be better off with the standard location that most people use.

There is very little airflow that goes through the scoop, especially compared to the front bumper.
It's all about airflow!
Putting a heat exchanger up there is not a very good idea.
If you do flow coolant up there, that position will make it the highest point of the cooling system.
This means bubbles and air pockets will rise into there, so you'd need a fill or some kinda bleed device to handle this "problem".
Upgrade rads are good enough for 90% of the situations out there.
