Take your front bumper off, and go measure it.. Every intercooler we had to install, their is ALWAYS a little bit of modification...

The difference between bar and plat and tube and fin is simple, all factory turbo cars that came with an intercooler used tube and finn, deisel trucks use bar and plate. Tube and fin use hollow tubes that you can see straight threw, bar and plate use larger tubes but they have internal cooling fins, you can not see threw them very well. Witch is better? The largest intercooler that you can afford that will fit your car is better . I like the tube and fin personaly, if the Germans use it on there turbo cars from the factory it must be good!
