xec747 Member 15 Member For: 22y 2m 5d Posted 21/02/11 08:26 AM Posted 21/02/11 08:26 AM LOVE the look of this photoshop car.. I mean, I for one love the look of the fog lights, especially since it's like an angled headlight-to-foglight ratio.. Mmm, you can definitely tell it's an FG coming.Though, one thing I noticed.. the 'shop says "400kw".. I know it's just some random text someone added, but haven't we heard it'll be 351kw? Since it'll mirror the original GT-HO's 351 motor?Regarding the intercooler question I asked before. I understand that hot air is created when compressed for the supercharge, but running it through the intercooler, wouldn't it cause lag to the supercharger, which is something we see in the turbo's? And what would be the benefit, exactly? Cooler air means you can up the boost, I guess? I'm questioning this heavily simply because I'm buying a GT and wondering exactly what I should be doing when the temperatures hit 40+ degree heats.Back to the 'shop GT-HO.. If they release a front end like that, count me in on the exterior modification list, even if I have to rid those beautiful fog lights.. The intercooler isn't the main reason for the lag. Lag is due to the turbo having enough exhaust back pressure(revs) to spool the turbo whereas a supercharger is always running and that is their advantage, although they have the pitfall of sucking power from the engine to actually run them. Sometimes this is over 100 hp just to run it :DIntercooling will slow the airspeed but not really enough to worry about. I imagine ford will do a water to air intercooling setup just like the original setup they tested roll eyes
