I've been thinking about doing this also but I could probably find the answer if I searched

I've seen on H-T that the 94-99 Neon w/no AC radiator fits nicely

ive seen people lean them back and others just make different brackets. way that seems to fit best is traction bars. just put it in and figure it out. couldnt be that hard.talkin bout the half core right?

yeah its a half core. I was looking at it the other day and im gonna have to make some mods to get it to fit between the turbo and the rest of the car, but it can be done. Thanks, 1camshow

Ya it can be done

one of 2 ways
1: angle it toward your motor to gain hood clearance
2: Get a crossmember/traction so you can set the rad lower to clear the hood

I make that option but I'm currently putting crossmembers on hold.

I had to wedge mine I still have the battery in stock location and have the upper front crossmember so I had to lean it back and angle it, I can take pics this weekend. Pretty much you can do it that way or get a new crossmember. Since I am cheap and my car is already ghetto i just through it in there, seems to work fine an dI have it ziptide and it dosen't leak or move.

Well my problem is that the waste gate sticks out the side of the manifold to far and the fan wont clear. BUT......... i have solved the problem by cutting the radiator support so the ity can drop down lower and also took off the cross member that the hood latches into. I will just put hood oins, no big deal. But yeah tomorrow im going to weld the cross braces back in around the radiator and i think it should be good from there. No w all i have left is some charge piping and a nice short exhaust pipe and im about done with my turbo project.
Thanks again,
