Default Intercooler placement...

So... um.... I was looking under my hood seeing where I could fit a turbo, toobing etc, and notice a crucial problem... there is no room for an intercooler. Even If I were to remove the AC I still don't think it would fit. Has anyone on here turboed or supercharged their cars with a stock bumper on, or even better a 97 stock bumper on?

so your saying you want to fit the intercooler behind the radiator?? from my experiance every intercooler i have seen has either been top or side mount stock or it sits in front of the radiator by the bottom of the bumper......

I want to put it inbetween the radiator and the bumper... where the dams on the bottom can let air hit it...

Yeah thats where it will go, you just have to take the bumper off to install it. Some also require custom brackets
