oh yeah and they have a fairly simple installation.. no need to buy a 1200 dollar "kit"and still be left with fab work and pulling bumpers and stuff.

take a pic but nothing other than maybe the horns where in the way when i installed mine however all I did was bend them down. There should be some pics of what i did. Anyways with my bnr stage IV hybrid turbo this intercooler was fine however i'm going to be running a t61 now with about 20-22lbs of boost so I went ahead and sold this intercooler set and am now going with a large intercooler however if running alcohol injection the smaller ic probably would have been fine.

so im think im having a problem with one of the pipes bing such and agressive bend that it limits my boost.. i have a pipe thats shaped like the top of a arched cathedral windows. it is the same exact angle as the angle at the top of these windows. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:B...resses.arp.jpg someone made these pipes so they didnt have to turn the compressor housing down. At first this seemed like a good idea but im having a hardtime building boost. so how are you guys getting around this turn down issue. im thinking im going to have to have that cathedral pip remade to a smoother 180.

my compressor was not clocked down any. This was the piping that came with my trust intercooler and this is how it actually went.
actually the to pieces of piping with the question marks next to them where reversed.
