Stock top mount, beefed up...

I have been wanting to do this for a few years now. And i finally dove into it. I tryed 6 different intercooler set-ups on my last FC to find out what worked best. But that had a much larger turbo. I belive with the stock turbo, the stock intercooler is best. But needs some help to be optimal. Thats when i added the water/meth, wich is great. But the design of the stock intercooler bothered me some. the entry is great, but the exit is horrible. And the TB elbow is even worse. so i did this....

(welds are kinda sloppy, i was having a hard time stablizing the arc. Found out after my TIG torch had some major problems. time to upgrade!)
