Lots of nice ones on here but this is my favorite. Nice clean single setup.

What's to keep the air that comes in your front bumper hole from going OVER the radiator instead of THROUGH it?

^nothing because he has a front mount I/C.... air exiting the front mount is at a measily 7-10 mph... Your radiator is being choked up... give that thing some angle...and mount your Front mount a little higher so some air can get past it. OR go v-mount.... Just get the radiator some air before you fry everything
