Aftercooler on a Novi 1K???

I had contacted Jack @ MM about this to see if he had done/heard of it done. he said he was "pretty" sure it could be done. But after he emailed me the pic of it installed on a S trim, if we rotated the discharge back it would stick up through the hood. I would need to have one to see if it was even feasable. It would seem like you would have to modify both sides of the aftercooler to get it to work properly.

I can tell ya for a fact the Novi will bang your hood if it's not turned all the way. Mine came from the factory just a little too far towards the driver side and now I have a nice little dent that everyone asks about.
At any rate, I was actually thinking about running an intercooler (not charge cooler) before the blower. Seems like the plumbing wouldn't be too bad since I already have a Morpheus Powerpipe. Just run an intercooler in front of the radiator, a pipe conecting the MAF/powerpipe, some pipe to the driver side and pop my K&N in the driver wheel well.
Not sure what kind of enhancement it would give but that's what intercoolers were made for. Besides, it beats the hell out of re-welding a chargecooler.
Last but not least, doesn't Vortech make an "igloo" intake/chargecooler? Might be the best bet, just scratch off the Vortech logo and scribble in Paxton. ;)
