What did you have to modify on the intercooler piping?

What size was the piping? And your talkin about that U shaped pipe on the drivers side? All you had to do is lengthen the middle of it? I ask because I will be ordering an intercooler kit tonite

Mounted it in the engine bay right on the sideof the airbox. Can barely even see it but it's a nice spot and I used the factory mounting point. I'll get a pic later. It's really nice, with the smaller spring, it only allowed me to push 15lbs when tightened all the way. I installed the thicker spring which came with the kit and now I am doing 18lbs and there's still alot more room to go for more pressure.

2.5" piping, and both sides had to be lengthened. You can get away with lengthening one side only (driver) but the IC will be a few inches off center which I didn't want so both sides were lengthened.

Excellent build! I hope that when I do my swap I can do half as good a job as you did. Love the attention to detail and overall cleanness of your car.
