Message	Especially when compaired to the overwhelmingly huge trade-off. Sure, unless you use your Z only for racing (not drag racing), then you might justify overlooking the idea of painting them. But I see a lot of practicallity in increasing heat dissipation for driving on the street. I'm still skeptical of the results though. I'd like to see some real-world testing while the intercoolers are on the car. ________________Sig Separator________________________ Parting out my entire 1990 twin turbo!
