Look at the Roush kit, it requires a 60deg bend and 2 90deg bends to get the air into the SC. On the suction side of the SC, there is significant loss from turns, bends, bumps, etc. So yes, with an odd shaped inlet to duct below firewall, there would still be a loss, not to mention the excess heat at the back of the firewall.Also, with a rear entry, to clear the firewall, the SC has to be slid so forward that the air has to be ducted about 4-6" back to the intercooler core. To do this without much loss requires more height, or sacrifice the IC core size to keep height down. Everyone will soon see that we did not sacrifice on IC size, this is the biggest aftermarket intercooler core of any late model system. <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/waytogo.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":waytogo:" title="Waytogo    :waytogo:" data-shortname=":waytogo:" />As engine compartments get tighter and more unique, your gonna see more go this route. <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/peace.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":peace:" title="Peace    :peace:" data-shortname=":peace:" /></blockquote>
