From what I've heard, it's fairly pointless.
The stock IC is to small to really work well as a front mount, and exept a lot of gains from it.
The easiest way (IMO) to mount it is to move the rad back 6" by using longer bolts and some pipe as spacers, and mount the IC right in front of the rad. You must ditch the shroud and go with an electric fan- wich is better anyways and frees up tons of space!
