I have been running my TN kit (but with a Garrett in place of the Turbonectics turbo) for 6 months behind the OEM bumper with the fans that came with the kit. I have been on 3 seperate trips over 400 miles in each direction, spent a day at the 1/4 mile track and even on a photoshoot lasting over two hours long idling. No overheating...plus its barely noticable.
Here it is behind the stock bumper.

Stock bumper is very okay and an aerodynamic, wind tunnel tested OEM part. Anybody who does not use the OEM bumper that participates in this thread must accept the OEM bumper as their bumper of choice and can not get out of it, no matter what. Retroactive as soon as I say OEM. OEM.

No. Okay? I think you have ricer tendencies. Like I said, anybody who does not use the OEM bumper that participates in this thread must accept the OEM bumper as their bumper of choice and can not get out of it, no matter what. Retroactive as soon as I say OEM. OEM.
Tom from SP is using the biggest intercooler possible I believe so that one extends across the intake ducts on the OEM bumper so it has plenty of air flow.

Is that a problem? Not really... but does it work better with the K2 bumper? Yep, my logs say so.
