[QUOTE="eyong, post: 3528146, member: 23540"] Well, if you look at oem design, in general, most radiator cores/heat exchangers (includes a/c, oil cooler, intercooler etc) are placed sandwiched close to one another. This basically force air thru one after the next. And usually, on the sides of the radiators (especially between rad and a/c), they would seal it with some sponge or foam. Basically, we want to force air thru the fins, and not allowing air to lose off the sides between two radiators. I know intercooler are hard to achieve that, but tilting the intercooler means changing that flow direction after the i/c. Air, may, or may not all passes into, and thru the rad from there. That's why we install those mega expansive air diversion plate which directs air flow into the radiator. Would not make much difference if someone is game enough to use a cardboard either :rofl: Best is to create plates or box after the i/c, and ducts directly to the next rad. Then again, most would opt for bigger water-pumps, oil-coolers, Nismo thermostats and some even added extra electric blower fans in front of oil coolers :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
