Batt will go in the Back

Yes cutting reguired

i test fitted the IC there but you have to bend and relocate some stuff. i saw how turborotor's greddy 24R intercooler was installed and its in the same spot as mine. we'll see how it works out. i plan on pushing the stock ht-18s to its max. plans are already in the works for a much larger turbo. i still have some tricks up my sleeve

I bet you did!=) Hopefully you've got a BIG enough turbo you won't be experiencing a huge pressure drop.
How's the new engine?

I see a box for a Griffin radiator....is that the $180 one from Summit? (for Ford)

IC looks good. Hopefully not too much lag.

i'm running stock turbo for now. i want to see how well it will do @ high boost. after i break i'm gonna make a custom T04 turbo kit for my car the jspec i got looks to be perfect. its sitting in ATF right now. it has good compression. we'll see how long its gonna last. if this breaks i'll rebuild the other engine and port it etc

yeah that's the chevy radiator from summit. fits almost perfect just have to figure out how to weld brackets to aluminum for it. shouldn't be too hard. i don't think the pressure drop will be that bad on the intercooler. we'll see when i get the whole car running in 2 weeks i hope

nice install. as you already know the pressure drop is massive on the stock turbo. just run a 60 and you'll be fine. everybody thinks there is huge lag on that ic but once you go to a bigger turbo you have no problem.
