IC reservoir

Just added IC reservoir and iat dropped by 5-7 degree f, I'm running 65mm sc pulley and tune,with stock intercooler, and split system. I ran split system for 9 months so I decided to add reservoir, the extra fluid which is 500ml more dropped iat temps.
57.4f outside normal driving and I hit as low as 68-75
Great mod for pple to do and very easy.

I can but don't laugh, I used aluminum water bottle cut hole in bottom, put barb then jb weld it in place so it was secure and waited 48hrs to dry, if ur running a split system it ties in to 1/4 inch pipe from coolant reservoir, I have not made a bracket yet, will wait for week make sure it does not leak so I just zip tied it for now, make sure u let IC bleed out bubbles.

Looks like the stock, but i'm confused with the measurements... Stock is 74mm.
Check it with a proper caliper. Your measuring device is for timber constructions
