When the charge air comes from the turbo compressor it is hot due to having been compressed. If you can pack more O2 in you get a bigger bang. The charge air is more dense the colder it is and therefore has more oxygen in it. If you can increase air into the combustion chambers you can increase fuelling theoretically ad infinitum. In a diesel the air and fuel are not mixed prior to combustion. Heatsoak is not an issue unless the intercooler is on top of the engine instead of in front of it. Cold air is denser than hot compressed air = More oxygen = more power Having said that however, this is a diesel so it works differently. Colder air produces a little bit more hp. So cut along the red line inner beam hmmmmmmmmmm. The shocks on the bumper would function as before. Obviously this would severly compromise the strength in a light collision, however in a heavy one the bumper does nothing anyway.
