well made some progress today...
Mounted and installed my FMIC:
The bracket i made to hold my intercooler ( Not Done Yet):
Started Mocking up my intercooler pipping, the hot pipe is all mocked up ( i have to go back and cut some angles so the hot pipe sits better) but i cant do the charge pipe until my charge pipe comes back from gettin tig welded:
Finally got my Supra ecu, previously we had a soarer ecu:

any paint will "breath well" if you want to call it that. it's not the paint but the thickness of it on the fins that matters. there is what is called radiator paint that is supposedly specially deigned to be used on radiators. but any paint will work as long as there aren't any globs of paint on the fins restricting air flow and allowing it to "breath" or ventilate which is a more appropriate word.
