Didnt even know someone took a picture
My car was really dirty, but the picture doesnt look half bad! The white spot in all of our windows is the park entrance ticket.
More pics.

Havnt found the official count yet but this was supposed to be the largest Subaru meeting so far.

There're a few "official" counts, but the two I heard floating around most were 107 and 130. A big difference I know, but it's a hard thing to judge

I could see this helping when you are stopped, but wouldn't it just be an obstruction at speed?

People do put fans on intercoolers to improve airflow, but usually they are similar to radiator or air conditioning condenser fans, which are meant not to be restrictive.
These look like computer fans! I would imagine they are quite restrictive at speed.

Those are computer fans... the best part is he also put a neon light in there so the hood scoop glows at night...

that's pretty funny actually.
Those computer fans are not going to be able to put out the flow needed to do anything useful.

Also, the path of least resisitance for the outbound flow is around the edge of the fans and not through the intercooler. Good idea though.
