Problem is, I thik it may be way too long, it's 600x300!Will it fit between the chassis rails, can I make it fit cutting chassis out?Or another option... Could I cut the end tank off, shorten the intercooler and re-weld to suite?Any tips would be a HUGE help!ThanksHAZARDOUS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know if that brand of cooler is actually any good to begin with? Does it perform well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But like others have said you gotta cut the whole bottom lip off the front reo bar then weld the corner that is left behind. Also the A/c line needs to be bent out of the way a ridiculous amount without kinking or breaking. The other A/c fitting attached to the condensor would need to be behind the intercooler if you want it to be centred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
