Default DIY Intercooler Finished!!!

well after many hours of work (although I feel it was a very fun install personally), pissing around with piping and cutting my bumper support and another hole in the fender well.... with a Dremel.... It's on! complete finished pics to come, my camera ran out of F'ing batteries and its too late to take pics now. I gave her a very very small amount of go pedal on the way home and it started goin lean so I can't boost it w/out a tune now.....but I'll get that fixed very soon and after i install my 75mm tb/plenum that gets here tomorrow.

If anyone has any questions or wants me to do a write-up of my install just lmk. I see there is already a sticky on IC installs so I didnt waste time typing everything out but if you need details lmk.

here are some pics.. I will add the completely finished pics tomorrow

MMMM.... pretty

here's how you get from this:




To THIS!!!!!!!!!!

Yes you have to cut your bumper support there.... with a dremel and cutoff wheels it takes a good amount of time LOL!



ZOMG the snail moved to shoot air downward!!!!!



arbitrary piping routing pics.





Ya thats a hole I had to cut..... And yes it somewhat saddened me to cut holes in my car....until it was all bolted up. pipes got a bit scratched but hey, air still moves through them so I could care less...plus all others need to see is taillights not my intake piping right?









ya so its not mounted perfect... but u can't tell with the bumper on so who gives a ****!
