Default saab sidemount intercooler

Does anyone here run a sidemount from a saab and if you do can you show me where you mounted it. I was thinking maybe behind the radiator because that is the only place i can think of without going all crazy. It is a 88 crx single cam with a t3. Any comments appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I get your joke, but if you grab the piping before and after the IC, there is QUITE a noticeable difference. on the TB side, its actually quite cool. On the Turbo side, its almost too hot to touch.
so, maybe 24.56789% efficient

after furthur analysis, I have concluded your hypthosis to be slightly flawed. Its effective efficiency is 24.56734% at 3506 ft above sea level.
