Hook up some fans to that thang, and rerun that test. See if it helps!  Cuz from your data it looks like the best upgrade is just to get rid of the i/c!! lol That doesn't seem right, but data doesn't lie (it can be wrong, but it never lies).

well Im almost hoping i messed something up and the data is wrong...cos my guess is it's going to take a lot more than 2 little fans to get similar flow to what's coming through that hole at 100mph.
Data might be the hotter at the TMAF temp with no IC. If it is heatsoak, reckon it would travel and make it's way to the TMAF temp area with out the IC in place. I might just end up ditching the hatch, lengthening the tubes and brackets, make an IC spoiler like the mitsubishi posted on another thread on this forum if it comes to it.
i will run a test with the stock IC and another with fans in the RLS set up. Hope I can get enough time to do this soon, but with equity markets looking a lot like the charts posted above (yes Im a banker wanker), and my gf's family in town in a couple days... but i like challenges, especially dangerous ones.
