Question for those with N-Tech BMK and stock intercooler
You guys with the N-Tech BMK with stock intercooler, got a question for you:
With the battery tray removed, did anybody seal the part of the intercooler/intake air duct that blows air to the battery?
Does it make sense to seal it off or it doesn't really matter?
It appears to me that it should be sealed to force the air to the intercooler.
Anybody have a good suggestion as to how to seal the duct?

Yes, I sealed off the battery cooling duct. In fact I did it long before getting the BMK.
Why, I wanted the IC to get as much cooling air as posible. The engine is way more important than a $50
battery.
Does it make sense? Hell yes. What happens with car vents that are not blocked off when you block some of the other vents? What happens with any fluid when you give the fluid more areas to flow through?
