its not "mounted upside down," it has custom end tanks. you can do that with any intercooler core, buy a core and have end tanks made to do that. also note the lack of a bumper... not the best idea for a street application.

could you not effectively just flip one upside down for the same result?

Anyways, looks like an ebay core w/custom endtanks..

anand, my IC is mounted similarily, and has not prevented any cooling issues. Even under hard driving on hot days.

This car is from Spriso Motorsports. And the bumper was yanked off for this photo.

Anyways, I'm looking to eventually upgrade my Volvo IC, but I like the top mounted style because it requires less piping.
