I dont have a full-race kit but I do have a backdoor setup, my core is wayy to big to fit centered but that is really the last of my concerns, I could care less.

It doesn't look that bad VTi_boi but then again your pictures aren't to detailed. Can you take the bumper off and take pictures? I want to see if they mounted that IC properly. It looks like the intake charge pipe connects to the IC in a horrible fashion.

I didn't have to hack my bumper much at all, the cold side endtank is angled back so that it clears the bumper, otherwise I would have a big hole in my bumper with a 3" charge pipe sticking out of it I could of centered it in my bumper but I would of had to make some odd S bend to connect it all and I didnt want to do that.

Not a full-race. It is a custom backdoor I/C with some bad *** clamps. Not the Wiggins clamp though.

If I could do it again I would get a core 2" shorter and like 6" taller in the 4" thick area, I could center it easily with those dimensions.

Thank you, It's been a while since the last time I work on this car. It's finally coming together and hope to test it to the track to see what she does.

Id just like to know if i can modify my full race cooler to be back door on the intake side aswell?
