I guess you were taking lessons in comedy relief the same time as I was taking 400 level thermo. Wait! I'm already getting nightmares remembering those tests from Transport Phenomena! What have you done?????

Oh, and just so nobody get the wrong idea... the intercooler does not transfer energy covered in ice

ha its cool to see all the folks from northern IL post up their experience. this is prolly one of the last winter the evo will see, its a beast though. with the snow and blizzacks i was havin too much fun in the snow, and the car started every time with no issue, my only concern was if i let the car get up to temp long enough. but planning on moving south to the AZ. that last pic is a sick BG, its taken by a 10 megapixel SLR, and i put it on my 60" HD tv and you look at the cracks in the ice that formed and the ice forming around the badge, it looks SICK. i do have the high res version, just not familiar with attaching files
