What do you want for your current intercooler? How much work is it to convert to it?

 

(for anyone else wondering, that means I call dibs)

We had to remove the front bumper and then cut out a piece of the actual metal bumper. we sat the intercooler in the space we cut out and drilled holes where we used tabs that came off the intercooler and bolted into the holes on the bumper. It took about 3 hours, the biggest pain in the ass was getting the bumper off. I would sell the intercooler with all of the necessary clamps, hoses, and pipes. im taking offers on the intercooler system, theres a few people in town who are interested so if u want make me an offer.

Unless both the inlet and outlet are on the same side (facing right), i dont see where you could run piping up and around. it be interesting to see.

Well we sure did it because thats the way it is on the car right now! I dont know if u can really tell by the pics that are posted here that have my car, i might need to take more so u can see more of the actual intercooler system.....check out the pics that are already posted up here and see if u can tell what we did by looking at those.

I was planning on using a 180* bend on the right side of the intercooler and run pipe across the top of the intercooler back to the factory upper intake pipe.
