On the 4th gen prelude with a drag intercooler you have to remove the front bumper support and cut the entire inside section of it out. I used a concrete cutting saw with a metal blade. It's a PITA if you don't have the right tools. A sawz-all takes forever to do the job.

You have to remove the powersteering cooler mounting bolts, bend the brackets back, wire it in place. Horn and bracket has to be bent out of the way.

Have fun! I've done it on two different preludes, not fun.

Hmm, I don't know. For the Gen 2, you cut the support up to make way for the piping, not really the intercooler. If the Gen 4 piping setup is different, you may not have to cut the support.
