Sorry to wreck all your fun guys, but a guy i know was constantly bugging us about his ideas on this topic and we told him to stop annoying us and just do it. Put simply, it didnt work. He did everything you guys have mentioned here (except the air-con bit) and the intercooler just proved to be too restrictive. The car just wouldn't start because it was choking on itself. We decided to take it to a track and try to pull-start it hopeing that the forced air speed would help, and it did start but it needed to be pulled to 60km/h! Once it did start it ran extremely rough and if he backed off to less than half throttle, it would stall. Unless you can gat an extremely efficient intercooler, i think there will be very little chance of getting this to work effectively. However a different setup to what he had would maybe render this idea viable. He also had a chopped-down truck intercooler which certainly wouldn't have helped. Most people think cut-down truck cores are more efficient than car cores, not so! Anyway, i will be glad to give anyone any information on what he did if you really want to try this.
