I don't know what the undercarriage of your car looks like, but maybe getting the 90* on the IC cut and welded back on but rotated 180* would make running charge piping alot easier.

Mk3 supra stock ic= cheap effective front mount. Fits perfect on my CRX.

PPl ------- throw those things away. Ive seen em make like 450+hp on a crap dynojet, so i think youd be square with that...

Dsm sidemounts suck. Been there. Done that.

No, I was trying to explain why I care about the placement of the IC.

Yeah, I think I might have to ---- with it a little to make running the charge pipes easier.

I don't care how much it costs unless it's free. I'm not paying any more money when I have an intercooler already. I plan on upgrading much later on down the road, and that will see some beefier internals for the engine, bigger turbo, more boost, and a FMIC, etc. etc.

I was thinking about that, but I'm not sure about room. It's pretty ------ wide, and I really didn't/don't have the time to take the front bumper off and see.
