Show off your intercooler and plumbing

I was told that with mine being a street/strip car that I wouldn't need an inter cooler b/c I would not be in boost long enough to generate the heat. What are your thoughts on this.. I want it to be as safe as possible, I will be tuned for E85 and another tune for 93 oct gas.


whenever you compress air it gets heated! even the air coming out of the turbo when your not beating on it is VERY hot! you really cant even touch the "cold side" pipes without getting burnt just imagine how hot they get with a lil boost for a short time! i have my i/c pump on at all time when the car is running. ive only put ice in it one time just too see what it would do and i coulndt belive the diff.!! but just driving around town or beating on it i dont have to worry about det....
