Need Opinions: Is this enough space for my IC to properly Cool?

I have decided to go to a twin turbo setup for my LS2 powered 911. The engine bay is super tight with the IC on the ls6 manifiold. Do you think this is enough room for the IC to "do its job". Basically, a little more than have of the IC is exposed to tail lid.

Hard to tell from those pics but keep a few things in mind - you want to have good shrouding - this is huge - otherwise the air moves around the IC and not through it. related - you want the IC to be in a place where air gets pushed through it - in one pic it almost looks too tucked under the cowl. And last it does need some room behind to allow air to pass through/exit - otherwise it will act as a wall, so to speak,

HTH a little....

No kidding. It will pretty much need to be sealed to the underside of the engine lid.
