True that early CA18DET has no intercooler. IIRC, early CA18DET were low psi with T2/20 (?) turbos while later ones have T25 with more boost. Your DET came with intercooler stock and without the scoop that intercooler will be heat soaked by the spinning turbo and might be worse than not having one. Just my 2 cents.
