i've seen cars with this set up, so it can be done. whether or not the had to modify the lights to fit is a different story, but it can be done.

he's more concern about the piping running to the intercooler, i thought some one so knowlaedgable on F/I would know this.

Re: (pythoner)
u can fit 2.5 inch pipes under each fog light. you have to trim a piece of the metal bracket off each. you also need an intercooler with in/out on the bottom. search and you will find plenty of threads with pics of mine.

so that was a poor atempt at a stab correct? the piping is STILL behind the bumper, the fogs sit where the grill would be and is in the indented part in the bumper and doesnt stick back into the engine bay where the piping *would* be.

first you say the piping is behind the bumper, then you say it's in the engine bay, make up your mind. which one is it, engine bay or behind the bumper?

Re: EG6 fogs with turbo? (platinumx6)
I've had the fogs and tried out the intercooled turbo, so let me try and clear this issue up a little bit. The JDM fogs sit where the side grilles WOULD be. However, upon installation, they need to be cut out, because the brackets and assemblies for the foglights extend from the bumper back, pretty close to the radiator support behind it. So, no, don't think there's a way to fit the piping behind them. With some modding, you can probably go above, or below... Let me know if you try going below, I need to know for my next intercooler purchase...

Re: EG6 fogs with turbo? (JSPECSIR)
Sweet, thanks alot. Now I hate you, lol.
I can definitely see that there's space underneath the fogs and still behind the lip. Sweet FMIC, can't wait till I Greddy my VTi. Probably some cutting involved, huh? Oh well, not like you really need to be the manliest of men to be able to work with PLASTIC, lol. Thanks for the pics, that cleared up a little hesitation in my mind.

You might have to cut some of the foglight bracket depending on where you are routing the piping. Or you can run a DSM Side mount.
