I centered it (with the front grille) and then drilled holes through the frame and brackets on the IC. Then put the bolt through on the backside and double nutted (with a lock washer) on the front side.

Wedling skills do come in handy. If I knew how to weld, I probably wouldve just welded it on (to be more secure), but with just the bolt (heavy grade and lock washers) I had no problems whatsoever. It was on there tight. I think I did two bolts on each side.

Just got to the hardware store and get a good sized L braket. There are soo many holes below the front radiator support that you can use. That is how I have always done it, and it has always came out really clean. I wish I had pictures, but a L bracket works wonders ONLY if you have brackets on your intercooler or it is has threaded holes on the endtanks like the Precision Cast Endtanks have.

ok did that now i was doing my pipes and it seem that the window washer resivior is going to be in the way. I dont want to take it out at all because i love the thing. Is there a good way to go around it or maybe i differant model resivior i can switch out? Or how about i just make my own? any suggestions would be awesome

oh sure... you don't want to take yours out, but you're quick to take mine out and say I don't need it anymore.... ass.

Just do what I'm going to do, cut the neck off and move it on up, then have you weld something to the car to hold it on, lol.

oh yea... and use a sock or something as the cap.
