Not sure if I'm in the right forum but anyways I'm considering getting a intercooler for my 94 camaro next summer and I was looking for pictures of any 93-97 camaro that was running a fmic and modified the bumper - to get max. air flow to the intercooler. I wanted to see how it would look in the front without any billet grille covering it or hiding it. Because most I see hid there intercooler. Pictures would help out allot.

Let my car be proof, you don't need to hack the heck out of your bumper to get air to your FMIC. All I did was cut holes behind my fog lights, and ran an air dam below the front bumper to help direct air from the ground, and my IAT's (before I put on my methanol injection setup) were nice and cool. Having a gaping hole in your front bumper would get more air to your FMIC, but trust me when I say, it is NOT needed.

Here's my car;

 

Or you can hack it and be just as cool... Just messin w/ ya Ben.

 

If you dont like the look of the IC, just paint it...

 

When I had twins...

 

Silas, I normally hate the way hacking up the front bumper makes our cars look. Thats the first pic I guess I have seen of the front of your car. (I guess I didn't get to see the front of it too well in your garage) Honestly, yours looks pretty sweet, even with the hole! Nice work

 

Looks mean! Did you get the car running yet?

Are you running a separate air dam for the intercooler by itself? I'm just trying to figure how the airflow is going.

 

If you put some flat black paint on the intercooler you would never know it wasn't factory.

I made more of a seperate air inlet that comes down from the front bumper and directs air directly to the FMIC, and I have cut out the areas behind my foglights. Since the small air inlet sticks down a little, it took a little air away from my air dam for the radiator, so I ended up extending that air dam a little to help keep my engine temps down. Heres a little better pic.

 

Here's a couple of shots of mine...It's pretty big and fits good with the bumper support removed.

 

 

what size are you guys running
