mount the intercooler upside down so the charge piping goes to the top of the endtanks rather than the bottom. done and done.

He's being honest, fabrication of the pipes determines if they will fit or now if they are on the center of the IC.

Im aware of that...im just saying an answer like "get some madd fabrication skillz y0!" doesnt help out.

If he would have listed some steps, instructions or any other types of tips along with his answer i would have been fine.

I say don't buy a premade IC. Have someone custom weld
endtanks onto a core of your choice, that way you can
place the inlet and outlet in the best position.

I was running a drag I/C. All I had to do was cut the lower fog bracket and it fit 99% perfect. The driver side bulged out a TAD (1/24")

Ok step 1

DEFINE THE SIZE AND SHAPE AND MOUNTING LOCATION FOR THE INTERCOOLER IN YOUR FIRST POST

after all without that for all I know it's somewhere between a stock eclipse and a mac truck IC, and it would prolly give a better idea of how the pipes can be ran wheather they go like a normal civic or under the frame rails like a teg

Since none of that information was given

"get some mad fabrication skills son" is really all the advice anyone can give
