hey mark what did you mount the intercooler to? I'm thinking the aluminum bumper piece but not sure if thats the way I want to go... let me know what you figured out... I may be getting creative haha



Mounted it to the front bumper support. Had to cut out a section with the angle grinder for it to fit properly. Also removed the tow hook.

Used two L brackets and bolted it down through the top. You have to pull the whole front plastic piece off (with the headlights in) to drill and anchor the bolts but it's only a few bolts to remove.

Here's a closeup. This was during mockup. It's since been sanded and painted etc..

Thanks. Also what does that cross piece actually do? I mean it isn't the sturdiest thing on the car, so I cant imagine it affects much of anything.

That looks awsome man. Is that a 30 or 35R? With the .63 hot side do you think that it will hit full boost before 4k?

Next step is to....drop in the NA cams.


Why are you going to do that?

Do you have some secret whirlygig for doing away with the NA cam's overlap?

Seriously though, why?

i'm confused by this...

you do realize the "overlap" can be adjusted on a dual cam setup, right?

Not a whole lot going on this week.

Going to bore out the intake mani for the NA throttle body. Hopefully pickup the gasket kit so i can put the cams in. I'm also going to drop a new head gasket in while everythings apart. Once that's done, i can start bolting things on smile.gif
