After experimenting with several different mounts, I went to homedepot and bought a long l-bracket and mounted the ic. The bumper fits it perfect and the piping clears the foglights with no problems. It doesn't even touch the fogs. I have to brace the bracket some more but you get the general idea. Just patiently waiting on the mani now. Let me know what you think.

 

looks similar to how i mounted my 8" tall JRC............looks good........kinda sucks that we had to remove the bumper suppor though.......but i'll find away to have some of it back on modified........kinda.....hehe

 

im using a huge *** fmic, and what I did is cut the back part of the bumper support, to fit the intercooler.

I know from experience that if you remove your bumper support completely then the car will handle like shiet.

I did that for wheight savings and I can feel the frame twist in mild to heavy cornering.

If you want to make a stiffer "L" bracket so it will keep the front end of your frame tougheter.

 

nice mount. How far is it from the back of your ic to the rad. support? (I want to keep my bumper support and i want to keep my fog lights on)

 

o ya, that IC looks good peeking out of the bumper. I got my project boosting this Sat-also a non-VTEC

What did you use to remove the radiator support? It's welded on I think. I got my custom IC mounted right now and it is too tall and hangs low. I don't think I want to completely eliminate it but it would be easier to cut and section and box it up off of the car.
