i plan on getting a stillen stage 2 supercharger which comes with an intercooler. i think it would be better to get a different front fascia kinda like the 350Z. i have to get a cowl on my hood to fit the s.c. or get a new hood.

you can run a intercooler with the stock bumper but if its a center mount its not going to get the best air flow. you maybe able to make a setup like the jwt intercoolers for their turbo kit. i would just get something like a karuma z bumper.

Intercoolers are all about airflow, without positioning it where it gets the maximum airflow you'll be lessening performance....gotta be cool. If what were discussing is the Stillen's S/C you'll need a hood w/hump or hole!....

Get a Vortech or turbo, Stillen superchargers need a hood and don't produce much power compared to others. I don't like the brand in general after seeing some really crappy parts come from them, and with the best ones I saw being only decent as far as build quality. The only thing that's alright is their exhaust IMO.

Theres a member on this forum with the JWT intercooler, I believe, it might be custom, but it splits between the two stock mesh openings in the bumper. No word on how well it cools

All the JWT G35 twin turbo kits come with dual intercoolers that fit behind the openings in the stock bumper. Find a used one and bingo you're good to go.

One cooler per turbo, makes sense.
