Mine had simple brackets that bolted to existing places on the car and tabs that came welded on the ic.
Pretty simple.

fender liners have to be removed, at least the front part. There are a few bolts that are hidden up there. Make your life easier, buy a shop manual.

yeah you'll probably have to remove the bumper support to make room for the IC.

yeah i'm making my own. 2.00" pipe baby... the inlet and outlet on the starion IC is only 1 7/8". its leeetle.

so we're just gonna run 2" pipes until i can get a nice greddy FMIC kit.

i have another question. is there anything i'm gonna have to modify? like the location of the battery...

location of the battery is probably not ABSOLUTELY neccessary but your install will be a super-mega-biatch if you don't. at least one of those cute little racing battery things would help.
