oompi thinx that the TERRANO scoop may also work nicely - and then you fit an electric fan in the scoop to suck air even when you crawl in traffic or in the bundu in fat sand ..
Number of Terrano okes hav doen this [see over on the NISSAN 4x4 forum ]

I had to make a plan in the Savuti @ 44 degree C - I routed the window washer pipe to squirt over intercooler - man o man o man.. WHAT a difference that made - that heat gage needle sommer dropped 1/4 back .. It really really works a marvel

Yes oom Mac , water spray over the intercooler is amasing , just not the best in the dust and dirt as it could lead to blocking of the cooling fins with mud , but the ultimate two solutions wouild be of course something like DEI's CO2 spray over the cooler and maybe even the Co2 Ball in the intake pipe and of course if you could add a little Water and Methanol injection in the mix - man on man the temps go down and the HP shoots right up

Is waar van'ie modder-maak maar weet jy, as mens in daai diksand teen 20kpu voortspartel, is daar bitter min stof [eintlik meestal niks nie] -- ten miinste nie daar bo by die I/C nie.. en die oplossing was ook maar uit nood gebore, weet nie of ek dit permanent sal wil aanwend nie.

Brigadier het altyd gesê: "as jy dom is moet jy bloei" en wyle Oupa Langjohannes het gesê: "Daar issi pille vir stjuppitgyt 'ie"
so, die man wat sy rad-vinne met water bespuit terwyl hy inne stofwolk ry ... hy moet NIE sy kop laat lees nie .. hy sallie hou van wat daar in is nie [of wat nie daar is nie]

Wat is die kans dat die bullbar baie lug weg druk van die scoop af en dis hoekom dit toe werk nadat jy hom hoer gemaak het :think:
