With a 9 inch tall IC you'll either have to take off your bumper support bar or cut it to fit it with the IC.

yeah.. thats a pretty big intercooler. Unless you plan on running big numbers, you could probably use something smaller. You'll have to cut the bumper support.

I had to cut my bumper support to fit my 9inch tall IC. A good two hours with a die grinder and a cut-off wheel will do the job
