You can get a screen but the charged air cooler can take a shot where it is located but it is a one in a million. Many after market but just more weight. Horsepower verses Weight. Pick your battles Luke ! 
Ok thanks i was just saying that it needs to be protected form the roads in PA they suck a$$ and have alot of stones and i just don't want it get to many stones to it and possably have one freak stone take out my ratiator. But thanks for the info.MY GTP 8 U said:Just for reference, SS's do not have an intercooler. Its a heat exchanger for the coolant that runs through the IC in your intake manifold, a radiator if you will. Just please people stop calling it an intercooler, because thats not what it is. If it was, you could also call your radiator an intercooler.
they do have a intercooler, it is air to water i think, do some research for itMY GTP 8 U said:Just for reference, SS's do not have an intercooler.

What the hell are you talking about?MY GTP 8 U said:I was just saying people shouldnt be calling the heat exchanger thats mounted up front an intercooler,
Just a simple air to coolant intercooler no seperate radiator, you may think that this unit is a heat exchanger but it does not exactly meet the requirements.MY GTP 8 U said:I was under the belief that there is a seperate heat exchanger, or radiator, for the intercooler coolant. Is this not true???
Gotcha. I dont know why I was using the term heat exchanger. I saw someone else on this board use it to describe the radiator for the IC coolant and I kinda stuck with it not thinking that it didnt make sense. My bad.ZX1100F1 said:Just a simple air to coolant intercooler no seperate radiator, you may think that this unit is a heat exchanger but it does not exactly meet the requirements.
A heat exchanger is a device that transfers hot air or fluid into another system to heat up its air or fluid, an example is many aircraft jet engines use a Fuel to Oil heat exchanger to cool the oil and to heat the fuel, you know why you want to cool oil, fuel is heated for better atomization to aid in more complete burning.
A system that is designed to remove heat by dissipating it thru coolant or ambient air is just a cooler not an exchanger.
Chris,
You may want to go easy there on contacting the BBB over an item that so far is only a problem in our imagination; the condenser can take some punishment.
