Yeah see I'm trying to figure out a setup that will allow the brake ducts to be kept in place while also supporting a good intercooler for boost.

You could either fab up piping that enters and exits at a different location or stay water to air and install a manifold with a cooling brick like lingenfelters. I think heat soak may become an issue road racing though.

Well see the thing is, im actually a V6 with a TT kit and a ZL1 front bumper atm. But I am looking into using the LF4s intake manifold which has built in water to air cooler and supports twinkle intake for the factory twin turbos on that engine.

I was just trying to find a way to stay with a traditional setup but allow room for the brake ducts.
