misc. turbo ?s
 
I installed my fmic on my 95 coupe. It is so tall that it hangs down below the bumper. I am considering buying something like a jdm lip to cover it. but still i have to cut out the bottom of my plastic airdam to allow for the intercooler. it hangs out about 2.5". and it is mounted as close to the bottom of the bumper as possible. any suggestions?
*also, can you run a vafc with a greddy blue box?
*i also had the downpipe to the greddy kit pull my exhaust over a couple of inches to the driver side, from what i know this is supposed to be a "bolt on" kit, has anyone else had this problem?

sorry for all the ?s. I would rather get it right though the first time :)

You can cut the core support of your bumper on the top side and bring the intercooler up a few inchs in you like, or live with the fact in hangs low, or get another intercooler that fits better, If you get a lip and it hides it, I wouldnt worry about it, unless you bottom your car out alot ;)

I wouldnt use the AFC/blue box together, since they would be canceling each other out, use one or the other.

Kits are never 100% bolt on ;)
