yet, but when I was changing the radiator I made the necassary mods to fit it in. My car didn't have AC so there's that beautiful spot to put the intercooler....which does fit perfect. The only problem, the shape of the IC having those 'wings' on it, doesn't allow it to be put up very far. So I cut off some chunks of metal off the sides so it can go almost all the way up. As far as piping goes, I'm having custom pipe bent at a local exhaust guy, and getting a new turbo from SD that has the output straight down. It will go down, to the side and in. The other side will be a bit more tricky... having to probably cut a hole into the underside of the engine bay -- which really shouldn't be that big of a deal cause it's not beefy metal. Well that'll just go up and over into the throttle body. Also considering having my second rad. fan on a switch so I can turn it on at the lights or other high heat times. I will be putting it in when I get the new turbo, which is probably gonna be sometime in september. Don't worry, I'll definetly be documenting the whole thing with a digital camera. This is on my 8 valve... not that it makes a difference though :)
