Do you have to cut out the entire grill area to accomodate the intercooler or can it be trimmed from the back to clear the intercooler?

 

You can trim to fit the IC.

 

Thanks, any specific instructions or just try and fit?

 

The pieces that needs to be cut are the ends of the grill where the piping and endtank meets. Also it's just the bottom portion if I recall correctly. Try to fit and cut.. that's what I did.

 

Thanks for info.

 

my pleasure..

 

Gus, you do know you lose the actual bumper with that kit, don't you ?

 

Yeah, I know you lose the metal reinforcement. Something that originally made me uneasy but it is such a deal, I will look at it when we install it and see if there is anything we can do, whether it is to fabricate something or modify something to allow the use of the bumper.

Otherwise I will try to avoid head on collisions.

 

Be sure to have the AIRBAG sensor remounted in a vertical alignment, not horizontal.

 

Thanks for that, started today and see what you mean.
