But if you detonate motor there goes $$$ also. I have been running intercoolers since 1973. I would not spend any money on a blower motor without one. Never had a intercooler leak. Number of blowen motors due to detonation, lost count.

I think Boot was looking for some coolers. He had gotten sand pluged in the ones he had.
