Timmy, I just had to cut some of the rubber peices shorter and I have to take a dremel to the bumper so I can make some extra room. Its very tight. I was planning on doing a FMIC but I dont see how I will ever get a FMIC in there. Was one of the
things I never thought about when I converted to euro. The only rubber peice I have concern for is the one connected to the blower then routing tot he pipe to the intercooler. Its pushed so close to the front of the bumper that its squishing the hose. Since it rubber it well expand and hope it wont push my bumper out. Its only slightly squished.
Also timmy. They say to remove the passenger side tow hook in the manual. You can skip that step. All you need is to remove the driver side one.
The quality of the brackets and the blower is amazing.
As for the intercooler its is made to sit like that. In that picture I didnt have it bolted down tight andlooks to be angled but it now sits perfect horizontal now. I will get some pictures tonight of the car lowered and back on the ground. Im seeing if Mitch can get me a stock euro lip so I can hide that plumbing a bit better.
