Another Water-to-Air IC for the MINI

Please forgive me if this one has been posted before, but if so, I must of missed it...

First, I'm not totally sold on water-to-air, or even any aftermkt ic at the time...

While at the GrandAM Cup race yesterday, I had some time to go in the corral area, where there were a few MINIs, and that is where I saw this MCS. I spoke with Harvey for about 10 minutes, and he said that the probe in the IC exhaust snoot, after driving almost 2 hours from SF to Salinas/Monterey (Laguna Seca) was indicating just 2 degrees over ambient. Pretty impressive...

The race was a blast, and for those interested, go check-out Tony and team at a track "near" you. He has his own forum here on NAM now (thanks Mark), and I just supplied some cool photos of his cars here:

Back to this IC...

The plumbing, in several areas, is not something I found appealing. I pointed-out some things that concerned me, and I got the impression that they were being addressed...

The IC looks good! It's interesting to see that there is no air intake hose from the front to the air box!!!
