I installed mine where the AC condenser used to be. Obviously I don't have AC.
If you have ac and are willing to cut your front bumper, then you can fit it no problem.

That's a very clean install

We've done several CRX charge pipe kits. They require you remove the reservoirs in the drivers side fender well.

What do you mean by kit ? Here is one we just installed on an ef, tucked behind the bumper nicely, same one that is on our site.

Bumps on the installs very clean. Really you options are only restricted by your creativity

Not a kit. 90% of the parts you see here were bought on ebay from different sellers. I wanted to keep the charge pipes inside the "frame" of the car, so I used an intercooler that was 27" wide. That way I could keep the charge pipes short and simple.

here's mine.

All I had was a bandsaw and masking tape and someone welded it up for me.

forget about "kits".. you'll NEVER find one that will fit without modification. find good deals on bends and go from there.

definately a nice setup

I've got (2) CRX kits here bolt on for customers that I need to finish welding
One is 2.5" for an HF setup, the other is 2.75" for a SOHC topmount setup.
