sweet deal man... that intercooler is sexy as hell. so how long did it take you from start to finish? does it go on with regular hand tools?

it took me about 15 hours it was really hard to get the skin to fit by the headlights. so I cut little by little, finally i called turbo xs and had them help me with fitment. if there was no problem with that i could have had it done in 3 hours. late.

I'm getting mine in a few days, could you explain a little more on the skin/headlight issue, or do you mean fog lights?

You ahve to use a short ram intake, you cant use a CAI only the injen can, all front mounts use the wheel well for the piping route but the injen.
