The other issue is that the stock plenum inlet is on the wrong side for your plan to route the flow to a cooler in the kidney grille. Reference the G Power kit which also has an intercooler at the kidney grille. Also a longer air path also has a negative impact on throttle response, but air-to-air cooling is probably better for more laps.

I agree, but mounting the condenser, wiring the pump, dealing with all the garbage and extra weight... i'm quite committed to the idea right now and ultimately think this will be the plan for at least this season. I worry if I put the kit on now, I won't pull it apart to develop the necessary parts afterwards. I'm going to try to get it done. Nice thing is, I'm not modifying the kit itself. Just cutting my stock plenum and making an intercooler setup.
The inlet of my plenum will be cut, we'll then make a coupler and reducer elbow for it to point it the right way.
The PS kit is going on regardless. I'm tired of fluid on the windshield, and any weight I can move off the front and put in the rear is welcomed.
Thank you though, all good points! Agree 100%, I'm just an idiot and want it my way from the start.
