The stock side mount intercooler (SMIC) has been described by many as a big heatsoak wating to happen, even if you're not running a high performance software.

I would think that would be easier and cheaper plus still get better results than the complete install of a fan of some sort.
Have at present a tyrolsport upgraded SMIC, and as stated just looking for a cheap simple method of trying to reduce intake temps as best as possible with what I have
